+## Provenance
+
+### V1
+
+Unwrapped and base64-decoded from the Sigstore Bundles and DSSE Envelopes, NPM V1 attestations are actually two parts: SLSA's build provenance and NPM's publish attestations. slsa-verifier will verify the envelopes and bundles around both attestations with the attestations file.
