Kusari — Open-source software supply chain security platform generating and verifying SBOM provenance metadata.

-

Our Verdict

Interesting bet for supply-chain-security teams who like open source — not a plug-and-play GRC purchase.

Pros

  • Open-source foundation for SBOM and provenance
  • Verifies SLSA provenance of build artifacts
  • Supply chain visibility across CI/CD pipelines
  • Aligned with emerging US federal SBOM requirements

Cons

  • Early-stage product with evolving feature set
  • Requires engineering effort to integrate into pipelines
  • Smaller team and community than OSS security incumbents
  • Business model and pricing still maturing
Best for: Platform teams building secure software supply chains from scratch Not for: Compliance buyers who want a turnkey SOC 2 or FedRAMP tool

When to Use Kusari

Good fit if you need

  • SBOM generation and signing for software supply chain
  • SLSA provenance attestation for CI/CD pipeline artifacts
  • Open-source dependency integrity verification via GUAC
  • Supply chain risk scoring for enterprise vendor assessment
