How It All Started

Aqua Security was founded in 2015, as containers and serverless technologies were just emerging, recognizing that the dramatic change in application development and architecture requires an equally dramatic shift in security.

“We help our customers create applications that are secure by design, enabling agile DevOps and hybrid cloud deployment with no compromise on security or compliance.”

Amir Jerbi

Co-Founder, CTO

“The adoption of cloud native technologies provides an opportunity for security to be redefined, addressing the chronic cyber security skills gap through automation.”
