Chainloop Adds Evidence Retention to the Trust Stack

Chainloop is turning CI/CD pipelines into a lasting record of provenance, compliance, and release trust.

Updated

What is this trend?

Chainloop is extending CI/CD trust by storing signed build artifacts, metadata, and workflow checks as tamper-evident evidence for audits, incident response, and release provenance.

  • Build trust now includes retained evidence, not just signed outputs.
  • Workflow contracts turn pipeline context into auditable attestations.
  • Evidence survives key rotation, audits, and post-incident verification.
  • Release engineering is shifting from delivery to proof production.

What’s the latest?

Chainloop’s new evidence store pushes CI/CD past signed builds: it collects signed artifacts and metadata, checks them against workflow contracts, and stores build context as tamper-evident attestatio
