title: "Ask an OpenShift Expert: Red Hat Trusted Artifact Signer - Conforma"

We were the guests of Episode 169 of the Red Hat YouTube podcast "Ask an OpenShift Expert", where we dove into Conforma and how it bridges the gap between artifact generation and production deployment in a secure software supply chain.

<!--more-->

## From Build to Deploy

This episode is a follow-up to [Episode 166](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWUSABfc6tM), where Conforma Product Manager Veda Shankar introduced Red Hat Trusted Artifact Signer (RHTAS) and the build phase of the secure supply chain. This time around, the focus shifted to the **deploy phase**: once your images have signatures and attestations, how do you validate them before they reach production?

The episode features hands-on demos of Conforma's policy-as-code approach, SBOM validation, and using AI to generate policy environments from natural language, making it easier than ever to get started with supply chain policy enforcement.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Fix the resources anchor to avoid a broken jump link.

Line 21 uses #ask-an-oc-expert-..., but the target heading is “Ask an OpenShift Expert…”, so this fragment is likely incorrect and may not navigate to the intended section.

A follow-up to [Episode 166](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWUSABfc6tM) on Red Hat Trusted Artifact Signer, this episode focuses on the deploy phase of the secure software supply chain. After images are signed and attested during the build phase, Conforma validates them against organizational policies before they reach production. This episode covers:

- How Conforma bridges artifact generation and production deployment with policy-as-code
- Conforma's origins in [Konflux](https://konflux-ci.dev/), Red Hat's internal cloud-native software factory
- Hands-on demo: writing Rego policy rules, configuring policy evaluation, and validating SBOMs
- Using AI to generate complete Conforma policy environments from natural language requirements
- How customers can use Conforma in their own pipelines to validate Red Hat or third-party artifacts

*Ideal for administrators and developers looking to add policy-driven gating to their deployment pipelines.*
