## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

Chain-bench is Aqua Security's open-source CLI for auditing software supply-chain posture against the CIS Software Supply Chain Security Guide. Its history is bound to the 2022 CIS/Aqua push to make supply-chain controls measurable across source code, build pipelines, dependencies, artifacts, and deployment.

### Projektgeschichte

Aqua announced Chain-bench on June 22, 2022 alongside the CIS Software Supply Chain Security Guide, describing it as an open-source auditing tool for the new CIS guidelines. The official README says Chain-bench scans the software delivery lifecycle from code time through deploy time and implements CIS Software Supply Chain Benchmark checks.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

The official README documents installation through Homebrew, Nix, Docker, GitHub releases, and GitHub Actions, with GitLab CI support described as beta. Aqua's July 2022 blog also listed GitHub Action, Docker image, executable releases, and NixOS package routes, showing the project was designed to be consumed both locally and in CI.

### Wie es verwendet wird

Users provide a repository URL and an SCM access token, then run chain-bench scan to collect organization, repository, branch protection, member, and pipeline settings and report pass/fail results for CIS controls. The README documents GitHub and GitLab SCM support, personal access token requirements, Docker usage, and CI integration.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

Chain-bench is interesting to package maintainers because it packages a compliance benchmark as a CLI, Docker image, GitHub Action, and distro package instead of only as a SaaS feature. That makes it part of the post-SolarWinds/log4j supply-chain tooling wave where checklists became runnable developer tools.

### Zeitleiste

- 2022: Aqua published a getting-started blog for auditing CIS compliance with Chain-bench.
