NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar.

We're continually on the lookout for tools and techniques that allow delivery teams to work independently from the rest of a larger organization while staying within its security and risk guardrails. Grafeas is such a tool. It lets organizations publish authoritative metadata about software artifacts—Docker images, libraries, packages—that is then accessible from build scripts or other automated compliance controls. The access control mechanisms allow for a separation of responsibility between the teams that publish approvals or vulnerabilities and the teams that build and deploy software. Although several organizations, including Google and JFrog, use Grafeas in their workflows, note that the tool is still in alpha.
