-## Introduction
-Modern software is assembled using third-party and open source components, glued together in complex and unique ways,
-and integrated with original code to achieve the desired functionality. An accurate inventory of all components enables
-organizations to identify risk, allows for greater transparency, and enables rapid impact analysis.
-
-CycloneDX was created for this purpose.
-
-Strategic direction and maintenance of the specification is managed by the CycloneDX Core Working Group, is backed by the 
-[OWASP Foundation](https://owasp.org), and is supported by the global information security community.
