  • Sunlight, a Certificate Transparency log implementation
    5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 15 Mar 2024
    This is one of the projects I've been most excited about in the last few years. It let me backport to Certificate Transparency a lot of the modern transparency logging designs that came after it.

    Beyond the Let's Encrypt announcement and the ct-policy thread (which includes a technical and advantages summary), here are a few resources that might be interesting.

    - API specification https://c2sp.org/sunlight

    - Website, including test logs and feedback channels https://sunlight.dev/

    If you’re thinking “oh we could use something similar” please reach out! Sunlight is retrofitting some of the modern tlog designs on a legacy system. With a greenfield deployment you can do even better! I’m working with the Sigsum project on specs, tooling, and a support ecosystem to make deploying tlogs easier and safer.
