Your build pipeline is part of your attack surface
Signed artifacts, provenance and short-lived credentials stop the attacks audits never see.
Many of the costliest incidents in Web3 began far from the smart contract: a compromised dependency, a leaked CI token, a front-end swapped at deploy time.
Sign what you ship
Every container, binary and front-end bundle is signed at build time and verified before it runs, so tampering is detected rather than deployed.
Record provenance
Build attestations show exactly which source, dependencies and pipeline produced an artifact, which is useful for incident response and for auditors.
Kill long-lived secrets
Workload identity and short-lived credentials remove the keys attackers look for first.
