This page describes our security processes and supply chain practices.
!!! info "We continuously check and evolve our practices, therefore it is possible some diagrams may be eventually consistent."

!!! note "Starting from v2.20.0 releases, builds are reproducible{target="_blank" rel="nofollow"} and signed publicly."
Supply Chain Threats visualized by SLSA
We use SLSA{target="_blank" rel="nofollow"} to ensure our builds are reproducible and to adhere to supply chain security practices.
Within our releases page, you will notice a new metadata file: multiple.intoto.jsonl. It's metadata to describe where, when, and how our build artifacts were produced - or simply, attestation in SLSA terminology.
For this to be useful, we need a verification tool - SLSA Verifier. SLSA Verifier decodes attestation to confirm the authenticity, identity, and the steps we took in our release pipeline (e.g., inputs, git commit/branch, GitHub org/repo, build SHA256, etc.).
You can do this manually or automated via a shell script. We maintain the latter to ease adoption in CI systems (feel free to modify to your needs).
=== "Manually"
* Download [SLSA Verifier binary](https://github.com/slsa-framework/slsa-verifier#download-the-binary)
* Download the [latest release artifact from PyPi](https://pypi.org/project/aws-lambda-powertools/#files) (either wheel or tar.gz )
* Download `multiple.intoto.jsonl` attestation from the [latest release](https://github.com/aws-powertools/powertools-lambda-python/releases/latest) under _Assets_
!!! note "Next steps assume macOS as the operating system, and release v2.20.0"
You should have the following files in the current directory:
* **SLSA Verifier tool**: `slsa-verifier-darwin-arm64`
* **Powertools Release artifact**: `aws_lambda_powertools-2.20.0-py3-none-any.whl`
* **Powertools attestation**: `multiple.intoto.jsonl`
You can now run SLSA Verifier with the following options:
```bash
./slsa-verifier-darwin-arm64 verify-artifact \
--provenance-path "multiple.intoto.jsonl" \
--source-uri github.com/aws-powertools/powertools-lambda-python \
aws_lambda_powertools-2.20.0-py3-none-any.whl
```
=== "Automated"
```shell title="Verifying a release with verify_provenance.sh script"
bash verify_provenance.sh 2.20.0
```
!!! question "Wait, what does this script do?"
I'm glad you asked! It takes the following actions:
1. **Downloads SLSA Verifier** using the pinned version (_e.g., 2.3.0)
2. **Verifies the integrity** of our newly downloaded SLSA Verifier tool
3. **Downloads attestation** file for the given release version
4. **Downloads `aws-lambda-powertools`** release artifact from PyPi for the given release version
5. **Runs SLSA Verifier against attestation**, GitHub Source, and release binary
6. **Cleanup** by removing downloaded files to keep your current directory tidy
