Strimzi currently does not use the keyless signing and the transparency log. To verify the container, you can copy the following public key into a file: ``` -----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY----- MFkwEwYHKoZIzj0CAQYIKoZIzj0DAQcDQgAET3OleLR7h0JqatY2KkECXhA9ZAkC TRnbE23Wb5AzJPnpevvQ1QUEQQ5h/I4GobB7/jkGfqYkt6Ct5WOU2cc6HQ== -----END PUBLIC KEY----- ``` And use it to verify the signature: ``` cosign verify --key strimzi.pub quay.io/strimzi/operator:latest --insecure-ignore-tlog=true ``` ## Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) From the 0.38.0 release, Strimzi publishes the software bill of materials (SBOM) of our containers. The SBOMs are published as an archive with `SPDX-JSON` and `Syft-Table` formats signed using cosign. For releases, they are also pushed into the container registry. To verify the SBOM signatures, please use the Strimzi public key: ``` -----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY----- MFkwEwYHKoZIzj0CAQYIKoZIzj0DAQcDQgAET3OleLR7h0JqatY2KkECXhA9ZAkC TRnbE23Wb5AzJPnpevvQ1QUEQQ5h/I4GobB7/jkGfqYkt6Ct5WOU2cc6HQ== -----END PUBLIC KEY----- ``` You can use it to verify the signature of the SBOM files with the following command: ``` cosign verify-blob --key cosign.pub --bundle .bundle --insecure-ignore-tlog=true ``` --- Strimzi is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation incubating project. ![CNCF ><](./documentation/logo/cncf-color.png) [strimzi]: https://strimzi.io "Strimzi" [kafka]: https://kafka.apache.org "Apache Kafka" [k8s]: https://kubernetes.io/ "Kubernetes" [os]: https://www.openshift.com/ "OpenShift"
