-LaunchDarkly uses the [SLSA framework](https://slsa.dev/spec/v1.0/about) (Supply-chain Levels for Software Artifacts) to help developers make their supply chain more secure by ensuring the authenticity and build integrity of our published SDK packages.
+LaunchDarkly uses [GitHub artifact attestations](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/security-for-github-actions/using-artifact-attestations/using-artifact-attestations-to-establish-provenance-for-builds) to help developers make their supply chain more secure by ensuring the authenticity and build integrity of our published SDK packages.
 
-As part of [SLSA requirements for level 3 compliance](https://slsa.dev/spec/v1.0/requirements), LaunchDarkly publishes provenance about our SDK package builds using [GitHub's generic SLSA3 provenance generator](https://github.com/slsa-framework/slsa-github-generator/blob/main/internal/builders/generic/README.md#generation-of-slsa3-provenance-for-arbitrary-projects) for distribution alongside our packages. These attestations are available for download from the GitHub release page for the release version under Assets > `multiple-provenance.intoto.jsonl`.
+LaunchDarkly publishes provenance about our SDK package builds using [GitHub's `actions/attest` action](https://github.com/actions/attest). These attestations are stored in GitHub's attestation API and can be verified using the [GitHub CLI](https://cli.github.com/).
 
-To verify SLSA provenance attestations, we recommend using [slsa-verifier](https://github.com/slsa-framework/slsa-verifier). Example usage for verifying SDK packages is included below:
