cargo-crev is a cryptographically verifiable code review system that enables trust and security in Rust package dependencies through decentralized peer reviews.
A cryptographically verifiable code review system for the cargo (Rust) package manager.
This tool is used by Rust developers and security-conscious teams to assess and verify the trustworthiness of Rust crates before integrating them into projects. It facilitates decentralized, cryptographically signed reviews of packages, helping users to automate risk assessment and compliance auditing in their software supply chain.
Users should maintain their private keys securely as they are essential for signing reviews. Regularly fetching and updating reviews is recommended to keep the trust graph current. This tool is best suited for teams or individuals committed to a high level of supply chain security in Rust projects.
