Sigstore

About Sigstore

Sigstore offers a collection of open source tools for software supply chain security. The framework allows developers and consumers to sign and verify software artifacts securely. It is intended for open source maintainers but also applies to proprietary software. The tools help trace software back to its source.

Products

  • Cosign: Uses ephemeral key material and short-lived certificates to sign and verify artifacts.
  • Rekor: Provides an immutable, tamper-resistant, transparent ledger of signatures and software metadata.

Used for

  • Signing and verifying software artifacts.
  • Detecting changes to source code, build platform, or artifact repository.
  • Signing images and pushing signatures to a registry.
  • Linking npm packages to their source repository and build instructions.

Who it is for

  • Open source maintainers.
  • Software developers.
  • Open source software producers and users.

How to evaluate Application Security

This is how the CIOPages Research Team evaluates this category. It is not an assessment of Sigstore. It comes from our DevSecOps & Application Security Testing buyer guide.

25%
Finding Accuracy & Risk Prioritization
False-positive and false-negative rates on your own code; reachability analysis (is the vulnerable function actually called?); runtime/exposure context; EPSS/CVSS-based scoring; how a flood of findings collapses to a short, ranked, defensible work queue
20%
Developer Workflow Integration
Native IDE plugins, PR/MR checks and inline comments, SCM (GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket/Azure DevOps) and CI/CD integration, quality/security gates, credible one-click autofix, and how little context-switching a developer needs to remediate
20%
Scanning Coverage & Engine Depth
SAST, SCA, secrets, IaC, container, and DAST/API coverage; supported languages and frameworks; vulnerability and malicious-package intelligence; SBOM generation and open-source license analysis; scan speed on large monorepos
15%
ASPM & Consolidation
De-duplication and correlation across first- and third-party scanners, code-to-cloud/runtime context, application risk graph or single risk score per app, policy-as-code, and openness to ingesting tools you already own rather than locking you in
10%
AI-Generated Code Security
Detection of AI-assisted/AI-authored code, guardrails for coding-assistant and agentic workflows, security of LLM/MCP integrations and open-source AI models, and whether the platform keeps pace with code generated faster than humans review it
10%
Governance, Compliance & Deployment
RBAC/SSO, audit trails and attestation, policy gates mapped to PCI-DSS/SOC 2/NIST SSDF, SBOM/VEX export, SaaS vs. self-managed/air-gapped and FedRAMP options, and clean API/data export for your own reporting
