The SCITT Community
The SCITT Community, the people behind this website and its efforts, are volunteers passionate about not only the IETF SCITT standards but a variety of supply chain and transparency technologies.
The IETF SCITT Working Group
The IETF Supply Chain Integrity, Transparency, and Trust Working Group is the group of volunteers who formally maintain the SCITT Architecture, the SCITT Reference API, and other draft specifications and finalized standards for the scope of work defined in its current charter.
