maintainerLightning AI

PyTorch Lightning is a high-level training framework for PyTorch that handles distributed training, mixed-precision, checkpointing, and experiment logging. It is the standard abstraction layer for production ML training pipelines. Most large model fine-tuning workflows run through Lightning or a derivative (Lightning Fabric, Lit-LLM).

Why this package is monitored

Training framework packages execute during model training runs that often process proprietary datasets, generate model checkpoints, and push artifacts to cloud storage. A compromised training library can exfiltrate dataset samples or embed backdoors into the model weights it produces.
