12:53 PM EDT, 03/17/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Cybeats Technologies ( CYBCF ) on Tuesday said it secured a contract with a global automotive parts manufacturer to support software supply-chain risk management and SBOM operations across its environment.

The company said that the global manufacturer selected Cybeats ( CYBCF ) to support structured Software Bills of Materials (SBOM) intake, analysis, and governance workflows aligned with procurement, security, and engineering teams.

"The deployment marks Cybeats' ( CYBCF ) first in the automotive vertical and will support regulatory readiness and enable globally distributed teams to efficiently assess, triage, and act on SBOM data while sharing SBOMs and analysis with downstream consumers," said the company.

The company noted the engagement will enable the manufacturer to ingest, analyze, and operationalize SBOMs across internally developed and third-party software.

The company added that, as part of the engagement, Cybeats' ( CYBCF ) SBOM Studio will also support the standardization and improvement of SBOM quality and actionability, "enhancing the completeness, accuracy, and structure of SBOM data" so it is machine readable and ready for downstream processes such as vulnerability lifecycle management and compliance reporting.

"This engagement marks Cybeats' ( CYBCF ) first automotive customer and reflects how SBOM programs continue to move from concept to operational reality in large industrial environments," said chief executive Justin Leger. "Automotive organizations are managing extremely complex supplier networks and software-defined vehicle platforms. They need scalable ways to understand what is in their software and where the risks sit across the lifecycle. We see this as the start of an important growth vertical for Cybeats ( CYBCF ) as the automotive industry moves to secure its software layer in response to evolving cybersecurity expectations, regulatory pressure, and the rapid growth of software-defined vehicles."

The company's shares were last seen unchanged at $0.18 on the Canadian Securities Exchange.
