Aqua Security has extended its container security alliance with Pivotal Software to include containerized applications running on the distribution of the Cloud Foundry platform-as-a-service (PaaS) that Pivotal makes available. The two companies already have a relationship involving Pivotal Container Service (PKS), a distribution of a Kubernetes platform that Pivotal curates in collaboration with sister company VMware. Aqua Security will now extend the reach of its container security platform to include both containers running on the core Cloud Foundry PaaS environment that are orchestrated using the Diego engine developed by the Cloud Foundry Foundation (CFF) and an alpha instance of the Cloud Foundry runtime environment for Kubernetes.
Aqua Security is the pioneer in securing containerized cloud native applications from development to production. Aqua's full lifecycle solution prevents attacks by enforcing pre-deployment hygiene and mitigates attacks in real time in production, reducing mean time to repair and overall business risk. The Aqua Platform, a Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP), integrates security from Code to Cloud, combining the power of agent and agentless technology into a single solution. With enterprise scale that doesn’t slow development pipelines, Aqua secures your future in the cloud. Founded in 2015, Aqua is headquartered in Boston, MA and Ramat Gan, IL protecting over 500 of the world’s largest enterprises.
