Compliance

The evidence your audit asks for. In every release.

From December 2027 the EU Cyber Resilience Act requires a software bill of materials for every product with digital elements. Every noyalib release has shipped one for a year.

What every release carries

Artefact What it is Where
Software bill of materials CycloneDX, listing every dependency of the published crate, signed SBOM.cdx.json on each GitHub release
Build provenance SLSA level 3 attestation of how and where each artefact was built Attached to each release; verify with gh attestation verify
Signatures sigstore keyless signatures on every artefact, plus a GPG signature .bundle and .asc files beside each artefact
Signed commits Every commit on the main branch is signed and verified Branch protection requires it
Dependency audit trail Every dependency audited or exempted on record, checked on every push supply-chain/ in the repository, cargo vet
Licence inventory REUSE 3.3 compliant: every file carries its licence and copyright reuse lint in CI

The verification guide gives the commands. Each takes under a minute and needs no account.

Memory safety, enforced rather than promised

Regulators asked software makers for memory-safety roadmaps by January 2026. noyalib's roadmap is the whole codebase: every crate root carries #![forbid(unsafe_code)], so the compiler refuses an unsafe block before a review could miss one. Miri checks the parser for undefined behaviour on every pull request, and fifteen fuzz targets run on every push.

The resource limits that stop a hostile document, nesting depth, alias expansion, node count and input size, are decided by functions that are machine-checked with Kani. The proofs run in CI. They show the checks are exact, that they never panic, and that no input can wrap a counter back under its limit.

What the family measures

A script in the core runs 131 probes across the six repositories on demand: tests, lints, audits, signed releases, SBOMs, pinned actions and the state of the main branch. The latest run scored A+ at 97.9%. The conformance page carries the table, and the ecosystem document the full record.

Answering a security questionnaire

The questions a procurement review asks, with the short answer and where the evidence lives:

  • Does the product publish an SBOM? Yes, CycloneDX, per release, signed.
  • Is the build reproducible and attested? SLSA level 3 provenance per release.
  • Are dependencies reviewed? Every one is audited or exempted on record with cargo-vet, and cargo-deny checks advisories, licences and sources on every push.
  • Is the code memory safe? No unsafe code, enforced by the compiler; Miri and fuzzing on every change.
  • Is there a disclosure process? Yes: the security policy names the private channel and the response time.
  • What licence? Apache-2.0 or MIT, at your option, with no account, key or licence server.
