summary
CNCF’s Security Slam brings 13 projects together to run a subset of OpenSSF Scorecard checks via CLOMonitor and accumulate 11 months of scorecard results across 163 repos (about 8,000 API calls). Slam participants consistently raise hygiene—binaries-in-source and CI/CD checks climb above 75%—while incubating projects lag and Kubernetes sits around 65–75%. SBOM publication and release signatures remain low (under ~50% and ~25% respectively). Renovate and other tools get concrete integrations; next Slam runs Oct–Nov 2023.
