SLSA, pronounced [salsa](https://www.google.com/search?q=how+to+pronounce+salsa), stands for Supply-chain Levels for Software Artifacts. It is a robust security framework designed to bolster software security and supply chain integrity from source to service. In this article, we will delve into what SLSA is, how to get started, and tips for troubleshooting common issues.

What is SLSA?

SLSA provides a common language for professionals in the software industry to describe security levels throughout the software supply chain. Think of SLSA as a set of building blocks, each indicating the resilience of your software at various stages of its lifecycle. By using SLSA, teams can ensure that they are not just “safe enough” but are striving towards being as resilient as possible at any link in the supply chain.
