+title: Image Signing and Validation

+---
+
+This page describes how to use [Cosign](https://github.com/sigstore/cosign) to
+validate the provenance of Istio image artifacts.
+
+Cosign is a tool developed as part of the
+[sigstore](https://www.sigstore.dev) project, which
+simplifies signing and validation of signed Open Container Initiative (OCI) artifacts,
+such as container images.
+
+Starting with Istio 1.12, we sign all officially published container images as part of our release
+process. End users can then verify these images using
+the process described below.
+
+This process is suitable for either manual execution or integration with build
+or deployment pipelines for automated verification of artifacts.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Before you begin, please do the following:
+
+1. Download the latest
+   [Cosign](https://github.com/sigstore/cosign/releases/latest) build for your
+   architecture, as well as its signature.
+1. Validate the `cosign` binary signature:
+
+   {{< text bash >}}
+$ openssl dgst -sha256 \
+    -verify <(curl -ssL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sigstore/cosign/main/release/release-cosign.pub) \
+    -signature <(cat /path/to/cosign.sig | base64 -d) \
+    /path/to/cosign-binary
+    {{< /text >}}
+
+1. Make the binary executable (`chmod +x`) and move to a location on the `PATH`
+
+## Validating Image
+
+To validate a container image, do the following:
+
+{{< text bash >}}
+$ ./cosign-binary verify --key "https://istio.io/misc/istio-key.pub" {{< istio_docker_image "pilot" >}}
+{{< /text >}}
+
+This process will work for any released image or release candidate built with the Istio build infrastructure.
+
+An example with output:
+
+{{< text bash >}}
+$ cosign verify --key "https://istio.io/misc/istio-key.pub" gcr.io/istio-release/pilot:1.12.0
+
+
+Verification for gcr.io/istio-release/pilot:1.12.0 --
+The following checks were performed on each of these signatures:
+  - The cosign claims were validated
+  - The signatures were verified against the specified public key
+  - Any certificates were verified against the Fulcio roots.
+
+[{"critical":{"identity":{"docker-reference":"gcr.io/istio-release/pilot"},"image":{"docker-manifest-digest":"sha256:c37fd83f6435ca0966d653dc6ac42c9fe5ac11d0d5d719dfe97de84acbf7a32d"},"type":"cosign container image signature"},"optional":null}]
