Wherein we chat with Trishank Karthik Kuppusamy about The Update Framework, a security layer that lets package managers assure the veracity and integrity of their packages. We talk about how it grew out of the TOR Project, how it works, how Uptane is used for package management in cars (!), and what package maintainers can do to help their own security.
