Summer of Clearinghouses
Chainguard argues that vulnerability clearinghouses are necessary but insufficient — enterprises need trusted builds, SBOM actuation, and secure-by-design practices to meaningfully reduce open-source risk.

Clearinghouses alone won't secure open source. Learn why actuation, trusted builds, and secure-by-design software matter more than vulnerability data.
Editorial Analysis
As CRA mandates tighten software supply-chain accountability, European enterprises must move beyond passive vulnerability tracking toward provably secure build pipelines.
Audit your open-source consumption workflow: verify you have trusted-build provenance and SBOM actuation, not just vulnerability feeds.
Vulnerability databases alone do not secure the software supply chain — proactive build integrity is now a regulatory expectation under CRA.
