• [$] Eliminating long-lived credentials with trusted publishing

    Trusted
    publishing is an authentication mechanism that relies on
    short-lived credentials to reduce the risk of supply-chain attacks. At
    the 2026 Open
    Source Summit North America, Mike Fiedler walked the audience
    through why trusted publishing exists, how it works, and made the case
    for its adoption. It is not a silver bullet against all attacks, but
    it does offer protection against theft of long-lived credentials used
    to publish to package registries.
