GitHub Actions Quickstart: Cryptographically sign your SBOM in 5 minutes

The EU Cyber Resilience Act lands in 2027.

If you ship software to the EU, you'll need:
→ A signed SBOM with every release
→ Cryptographic proof your build wasn't tampered with
→ A verifiable audit trail going back years

Most teams I talk to haven't started.

The technical answer isn't complicated. ECDSA signing on every build. RFC 3161 timestamps so the signature is provably from before any incident. A hash chain so nobody can quietly rewrite history.

The hard part is doing it without slowing the build down or adding 200 lines of crypto code to every pipeline.

I built LedgerProve to handle this in one GitHub Action step. Free for one repo, forever.

If you're responsible for security or compliance at a SaaS that sells into Europe, this is worth 5 minutes of your attention now — not in 2027 when the deadline is on top of you.

What's your team's plan for CRA compliance?
