Software Identification (SWID) tags provide an extensible XML-based structure to identify and describe individual software components, patches, and installation bundles. CoSWID supports a similar set of semantics and features as SWID tags, as well as new semantics that allow us to describe additional types of information, all in a more memory efficient format. python3-uswid is used to generate the CoSWID data blob. For example, fwupd project requires CoSWID data to be embedded into firmware binary to hold the version information.
