The IESG has received a request from the Supply Chain Integrity,
Transparency, and Trust WG (scitt) to consider the following document: - 'An
Architecture for Trustworthy and Transparent Digital Supply Chains'
  <draft-ietf-scitt-architecture-18.txt> as Proposed Standard

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final
comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
last-call@ietf.org mailing lists by 2025-08-29. Exceptionally, comments may
be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning
of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract


   Traceability in supply chains is a growing security concern.  While
   verifiable data structures have addressed specific issues, such as
   equivocation over digital certificates, they lack a universal
   architecture for all supply chains.  This document proposes a
   scalable architecture for single-issuer signed statement transparency
   applicable to any supply chain.  It ensures flexibility,
   interoperability between different transparency services, and
   compliance with various auditing procedures and regulatory
   requirements.
