"At the Software Transparency Foundation, we see voluntary security 
attestations as a scalable bidirectional path connecting industry and open 
source communities of every size. We are convinced of that such attestations 
can increase transparency, trust, traceability, and collaboration, while 
remaining affordable and proportionate for all parties involved.

This approach recognizes community-led governance and market neutrality, while 
helping manufacturers responsibly consume open source software to meet the EU 
Cyber Resilience Act goals."

— Agustin Benito Bethencourt, Ecosystem Coordinator at Software Transparency 
Foundation
