Introduction

Developing and managing modern software is an increasingly complex task involving a multitude of tools, services, and dynamic supply chains. Insufficient visibility into the software composition increases cybersecurity risks and development and maintenance costs.

MAIA Software is a platform designed to cooperate with the tools you already use to manage complexity, traceability, security, and more. The platform consists of two main parts:

  1. Web Services (WebApp), containing the user interface, data storage, API:s, messaging, business logic, and more.
  2. Information Services, encompass specialized services that aggregate data from multiple external sources and deliver consolidated information to the WebApp instances.

MAIA Software may be operated both as:

  1. a DevSecOps tool with all features active (the WebApp in MAIA mode).
  2. a SBOM Central service (the WebApp in SBOM Central mode). Primarily a SaaS solution that can serve many customers, focusing on open-source security, licensing, and health. On-prem options are also available.
