What is SLSA?
SLSA stands for “Supply Chain Levels for Software Artifacts”. It is a security framework, a check-list of standards and controls to prevent tampering, improve integrity, and secure packages and infrastructure in your projects, businesses or enterprises. It’s how you get from safe enough to being as resilient as possible, at any link in the chain. Here’s our solutions page for a more detailed explanation on SLSA.
What is a software attestation?
Software attestations enable you as a software producer to provide transparency and verification capabilities to your customers. ActiveState Platform will generate signed attestations — such as provenance and SBOMs — for your application’s open source components.
Using its secure build service, the ActiveState Platform will generate signed attestations for your application’s open source components, and verify their security and integrity upon installation using the attestation’s metadata. Here’s our solutions page for a more detailed explanation on software attestations.
