sigstore-go verification and signing now in beta

sigstore-go verification and signing now in beta Recent sigstore-go releases include signing support, as well moving both the verification and signing API from unstable to beta. sigstore-go is used in several open source projects like the SLSA verifier, the GitHub CLI, and Stacklok Minder. Cosign and sigstore-go are similar in that they are both written in Go, but the main differences are that sigstore-go is not a full-fledged CLI, and that it supports the protobuf bundle format.

Homebrew's Sigstore-powered provenance is in beta

Last November, Alpha-Omega and Trail of Bits announced a collaboration to bring build provenance to homebrew-core. Today, we are pleased to announce that the core of that work is live and in public beta: homebrew-core is now using Sigstore to cryptographically attest to all bottles built in the official Homebrew CI. This is aligned with Sigstore’s mission: to support frictionless and transparent provenance on all artifact registries. Homebrew’s build provenance follows last year’s npm provenance feature, making Homebrew the second major packaging ecosystem to adopt Sigstore!

Sigstore - An OpenSSF Graduated Project

Sigstore Graduates: A Monumental Step Towards Secure Software Supply chain security took a giant leap forward this month as Sigstore officially became a graduated project within the Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF). This milestone is a testament to Sigstore’s maturity, adoption, and its undeniable impact on making the creation and distribution of software more trustworthy. What is Sigstore?
