What is deployment assets escrow?

Why your deployment workflow needs protection

Software delivery relies on many moving parts. When deployment assets are incomplete, outdated, or unavailable, updates become slower, and support work becomes harder.

Frequently asked questions

What is deployment assets escrow?
Deployment assets escrow is a legal agreement where a trusted third party securely stores the technical resources, such as deployment definitions, configuration files, and release artifacts, needed to deploy software. Access is only granted when the release conditions defined in the contract are met, ensuring clarity and protection for both sides.
Who needs deployment assets escrow and why?
Deployment assets escrow is used by teams who build software and teams who rely on it. Providers use it to demonstrate deployment clarity and meet procurement expectations, while relying parties use it to ensure they can reproduce or support the deployment process if access to these materials becomes unavailable.
How does deployment assets escrow work?
Deployment assets escrow connects to development, storage, or container registry tools and allows for secure deposits of deployment materials. Codekeeper performs structural checks and releases assets only after validating that the agreed release conditions have been met.
What materials can be stored in deployment assets escrow?
Deployment assets escrow can include build scripts, deployment packages, container images, IaC files, CI/CD configurations, orchestration manifests, environment requirements, and documentation needed to reproduce or support a deployment process.
Are my deployment assets secure with Codekeeper?
Yes. Deployment assets escrow deposits with Codekeeper are encrypted, access-controlled, and stored in ISO 27001-aligned environments. Materials are managed only through strict, contract-defined processes, with all actions limited, logged, and authorized under the agreement.
How much does deployment assets escrow cost?
Pricing depends on verification, asset volume, and support needs. Codekeeper’s SaaS Escrow plans start at $195 per month, with optional verification and continuity add-ons available.
How do I get started with deployment assets escrow?
Choose a Codekeeper plan or book a demo, onboard as a depositor or beneficiary, and make your first deposit. Codekeeper then keeps your escrow up to date through ongoing updates and optional verification.
How does deployment assets escrow differ from SaaS Escrow?
SaaS Escrow protects all components required to operate, maintain, or recover a cloud application — including source code, data, documents, infrastructure details, and third-party dependencies. Deployment assets escrow focuses specifically on the deployment materials required to execute a full release, such as environment definitions, automation files, and orchestration artifacts.
