Fulton, Md. – March 16, 2021 – Sonatype, the leader in developer-friendly tools for software supply chain management and security, today announced Nexus Container, powered by NeuVector. Nexus Container is a Kubernetes-native, full life cycle container security solution that secures containerized applications from development to production.
Nexus Container enables Sonatype customers to continuously scan for security vulnerabilities and compliance misconfigurations from build to ship to run, and can keep these vulnerable images from deploying with admission controls. It is also the only solution to offer behavior-based run-time incident detection and inspection, allowing for the identification of any and all network traffic at application Layer 7 and every container process in order to automatically create behavior-based security policies. It also provides Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) to implement Data Loss Protection (DLP), and prevent zero-day malware and network attacks.
“In today’s cloud-native world, developers are increasingly packaging and delivering applications in the form of containers running in public, hybrid, and private cloud operating environments,” said Wayne Jackson, CEO of Sonatype. “We’re proud to offer Nexus Container running on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform and supporting all cloud-native frameworks from day one.
