Supply Chain Security

19. 12. 2025 Updated: 27. 03. 2026 1 min read intermediate

Supply chain attacks are growing exponentially. A compromised dependency, build pipeline, or registry means a backdoor in your software.

Protection Layers

  1. Signed commits (GPG, SSH signing)
  2. Lockfile + integrity checks
  3. Dependency pinning (exact versions)
  4. Private registry / proxy
  5. Signed artifacts (Cosign, Sigstore)
  6. SLSA framework compliance

Signed Commits

git config –global commit.gpgsign true git config –global gpg.format ssh git config –global user.signingkey ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub

SLSA Framework

  • Level 1: Build scripted, provenance generated
  • Level 2: Hosted build, signed provenance
  • Level 3: Hardened build platform
  • Level 4: Two-party review, hermetic builds

Key Takeaway

Sign your commits and artifacts. Pin your dependencies. Use the SLSA framework as a roadmap for supply chain security.
