Chainguard shrinks your attack surface to keep rogue agents out of your environment

Smaller images means fewer attack paths
Chainguard Containers, on average, are 10% smaller than what you’d find on public registries, limiting the novel attack paths rogue agents can use to get into your environment.
Designed to fit securely within the rest of your stack
Chainguard hardens your open source before your developers start writing a single line of code. Our artifacts replace vulnerable or malicious versions you may find publicly, all before you scan your environment.
