Recently I developed a presentation* about immutability as a design concept in computer security. As part of it, I have slides which cover Certificate Transparency implementation[0], which uses Trillian[1] as a distributed ledger. Part of Trillian's documentation includes a Firmware Transparency[2] example. For the year or so I've been aware of it, I've thought that it's a great idea, and wondered if it would ever grow as a project/practice. Digging through the links in this announcement, it appears Trillian is the basis for the distributed ledger here. Glad to see the idea has been taken further by Google!
* Sorry, the presentation is non-public.
