The Update Framework (TUF) for Python

python-tuf is the Python reference implementation of The Update Framework (TUF), a framework for securing software update systems against various supply chain attacks. It provides APIs for both client-side artifact verification (`tuf.ngclient`) and repository-side metadata management (`tuf.api.metadata`). The library is actively maintained and currently at version 6.0.0, with a release cadence that addresses security fixes and implements new specification features.
