# The Sigsum Project
Sigsum is a free and open source project that brings transparency logging to
**sig**ned check**sum**s. Logging _sigsums_ and not a more concrete type like
-_certificates_ keep the overall design simple and generally useful.
+_certificates_ keeps the overall design simple and generally useful.
&#10004; Minimalistic design that simplifies log operations and usage\
&#10004; Centralised log operations but distributed trust assumptions\
&#10004; Discoverability of statements for data of your choice
-A minimal statement encodes the following claim: the data has cryptographic hash
-X. You can add additional meaning to each statement. For example, you may use
-a sigsum log to claim that
- _everyone gets the same news articles_,
- _software package X builds reproducibly_, or
- _a list of key-value pairs is maintained with policy Y_.

Sigsum logging makes it reasonable to believe your claims by adding enough
discoverability to verify them.
