# Chainguard

Canonical: https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/555649/Chainguard

> Chainguard is a software supply chain security platform designed to provide secure-by-default open source artifacts for modern software development. It supports organizations with strict security and compliance requirements, including those in industries such as defense, finance, healthcare, and government. The platform helps reduce vulnerability management efforts and supports compliance with standards such as FedRAMP, PCI DSS, CMMC 2.0, and SOC 2.

The platform includes a range of security-hardened artifacts, such as minimal container images, libraries, virtual machine images, OS packages, CI/CD actions, and AI agent skills. These artifacts are produced in a SLSA Level 3-compliant environment, where each component is verified, hardened, and traceable to its source. The platform maintains a catalog of thousands of projects, with artifacts updated daily. Each artifact includes software bills of materials and provenance verification to ensure supply chain integrity.

The Chainguard Factory serves as the platform's automated software factory, rebuilding open source components from source daily. This process ensures that artifacts remain minimal and free from unnecessary dependencies that could increase security risks. The platform also supports continuous compliance and integrates with development workflows to help teams maintain security standards while delivering code efficiently.
