This case study has been published alongside the formal announcement that openEuler has adopted OpenChain ISO/IEC 18974, the international standard for open source security assurance at the openEuler 24.3 LTS launch event.
“It’s a proud moment to announce the release of openEuler 24.03 LTS. This journey has been all about building a secure, compliant, and sustainable operating system community,” says Xiong Wei, Executive Director of openEuler. “Achieving ISO 18974 self-certification from OpenChain Project is a testament to our unwavering commitment to security and excellence. This certification recognizes our top-tier standards in development processes, software supply chain, risk assessment, management, and developer security capabilities. This milestone is not just a badge; it’s a reflection of the hard work, dedication, and collaboration within our community. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to everyone involved in this journey. Your efforts have made this achievement possible.”
“openEuler’s adoption of OpenChain ISO/IEC 18974 is a significant milestone for the professionalization of open source software,” says Shane Coughlan, OpenChain General Manager. “The OpenChain standards are designed to support process management across organizations or communities of any scale, and the growing community of conformance around ISO 5230 for license compliance and ISO 18974 for security assurance validates that model. We are delighted to work closely with our partners in openEuler in building a more professional, sustainable and accountable supply chain.”
