If considering "cloud" cases, would the reference containers have:

1) Signing (sigstore) and a prototype of the workflow to build on + attest?
2) Any prototype of recuring registry scans + reporting?
3) Any of the meta-security building blocks for security hardening?  (e.g., 
Security Technical Implementation Guide(STIG), build/runtime flags)

100% good with these questions getting added to a (future) list.
