Google announces Voucher
Voucher is a new service aimed at helping secure container supply chains. It evaluates container images created by CI/CD pipelines and only signs images if they meet security criteria. Binary Authorization then validates those signatures at deploy time, which ensures that only authorized code that meets policy and compliance requirements is deployed to production.
“Kubernetes helps developers build modern software that scales, but to do so securely, they also need a software supply chain with strong governance. From managed secure base images, Container Registry vulnerability scanning to Binary Authorization, Google Cloud helps secure that pipeline, giving you the support and flexibility you need to build great software without being locked into a particular provider,” Jianing Guo, product manager at Google, wrote in a post.
