The Update Framework (TUF) is an Open Source Framework used to secure software repository. OK, that's great. But what does that look in practice? A repository is just storage that is accessible to anyone other than you. Think about a shared Google folder. That's a repository. For software development, that's a database, an AWS S3 bucket, or even just a directory on disk. This talk will walk you through the steps to implement TUF on a typical data store you may use on a regular basis. Then we will see how TUF ensures the consumers of that data can verify your identity and the freshness of the things you share.
