OpenPubkey and Sigstore

Disclaimer: The following is representative of the authors views, and not necessarily that of the sigstore community. OpenPubKey was announced October 4th by Docker and BastionZero as a new Linux Foundation project. It’s a new scheme for using OIDC providers to sign arbitrary objects. It bears a lot of resemblance to Sigstore, so I thought it would be worth taking some time to explain the differences, including some advantages and disadvantages.

Announcing sigstore-go

Announcing sigstore-go Today we’re excited to announce a new open source library, sigstore-go, that represents the future of Sigstore’s support for the Go programming language. Since the beginning, Sigstore has been primarily written in Go but there has been a gap over the past year or so since we established the Protobufs-based bundle format: the de facto standard client (Cosign) lacks support for it. Cosign-the-library is also heavily focused on OCI use cases, which makes it difficult for library integrators who want to limit their implementations to core sign/verify flows and it also supports a wide variety of verification options, which creates potentially confusing duplication.
