This allows us to focus on our customer needs and leave other cross-cutting concerns to the subject matter experts. Typically, security and compliance capabilities are particularly well suited for being delegated to the platform.

Security by Default: How Verizon New Business Incubation Uses Sigstore to Demonstrate Provenance and Improve Customer Confidence

This is a Sigstore case study contributed by Aaron Bacchi of Verizon When people think of 5G networks, they typically think solely of the speed and bandwidth that distinguishes the 5G network from its predecessors.

Sigstore Announces General Availability for Rekor and Fulcio

Sigstore is excited to announce general availability (GA) for the Rekor transparency log and Fulcio certificate authority public benefit services! The community has been working hard all year to accomplish this milestone, and we are thrilled that open source communities can now confidently rely on Sigstore for production grade stable services for artifact signing and verification. While the Sigstore community has maintained a public instance since early 2021, the services were operated on a best-effort basis and maintainers periodically had to make breaking changes or reset data.
