Aqua Container Security

What Aqua Container Security is

Aqua Container Security protects container applications from image creation through runtime across platforms and clouds. Its scanner checks images for vulnerabilities, malware, secrets, misconfigurations, and open-source issues. It prioritizes vulnerabilities using contextual factors such as exploitability, severity, risk score, and whether workloads are running. Aqua can run images in a secure virtual sandbox to look for threats including fileless malware, supply chain attacks, and zero-day attacks. Assurance policies can keep unapproved images from moving toward deployment, while granular runtime policies help prevent drift, detect attacks, and block production threats. The product audits application security posture against NIST, PCI DSS, GDPR, and CIS Benchmarks. Listed environments include Kubernetes, OpenShift, AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, VMware Tanzu, Docker, and IBM Z. Aqua lists hybrid deployment, registry and CI pipeline scanning, Kubernetes admission, SBOM generation, and fix recommendations. Pricing is on request, and a free trial is available. Aqua provides a customer support portal.
