Authentication of Software Delivery

signs and authenticates software updates to the software.

This is done for:

  • Software patches – incremental updates to system for software fixes or security vulnerabilities.
  • Software loads – full software loads to upgrade the system to a new major release of software.

Both software patches and loads are cryptographically signed as part of builds and are authenticated before they are loaded on a system via REST APIs, CLIs or GUI.
