Secure Go for Cloud-Native Teams

ActiveState builds Go modules from source with full provenance and delivers them alongside low-to-no CVE container images, so your microservices ship securely from build to deploy.

Go modules from a verified source

Go's module system pulls directly from public repositories by default. ActiveState replaces that trust assumption with verified builds, giving your team access to Go modules that are built from source, scanned, and continuously remediated.

Built from source in SLSA Level 3 infrastructure

Full SBOM and build provenance for every module

Direct integration with your existing artifact repository

Built for the container-first stack

Go applications typically compile to a single binary and deploy in minimal containers. ActiveState provides both vetted Go modules for the build stage and secure base images for the runtime stage, covering the full path from source to production.

FAQs

How does ActiveState integrate with Go modules?

ActiveState provides vetted Go modules through your existing artifact repository. Configure your GOPROXY to resolve through the catalog, and your builds pull from a verified source.

What about Go's static compilation model?

Even statically compiled Go binaries depend on modules with their own dependency trees. ActiveState builds and tracks every module from source, so your compiled binaries inherit a verified supply chain.

Does ActiveState cover CGo dependencies?

Yes. When Go modules use CGo to call C libraries, ActiveState builds and tracks those C dependencies alongside the Go modules themselves.
