Chainguard is changing the way organizations build with open source software (OSS) by ensuring the components they use in their software supply chains are securely built from source and updated continuously. Chainguard Containers is a catalog of over 1,500 zero-CVE container images with broad customization capabilities and a reduced attack surface to improve supply chain integrity for containerized applications. As the fastest way to get a patch from source to artifact, Chainguard Containers is powered by Chainguard's bootstrapped Linux distro, Chainguard OS, and include transparent provenance, enforcement of FIPS-validated cryptography, signed SBOMs and attestations, secure hardening, and continuous daily updates to eliminate vulnerabilities. Today, Chainguard is used by government organizations, Fortune 500 companies, and some of the world's fastest-growing AI startups to mitigate risk in the software supply chain and enable engineering teams to build securely from the start.

“Earning an Awardable status on the P1 Marketplace underscores Chainguard's commitment to securing the mission-critical software the Department of Defense relies on,” said Ken Melero, RVP of Public Sector, Chainguard. “We're excited to help the DoD continue to modernize its software security practices with open source software that's built for speed, trust, and scale.”

Chainguard's video is accessible by government customers on the P1 Solutions Marketplace. The video shares how Chainguard's best-in-class CVE remediation SLA exceeds the DoD's standards of addressing Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) within 30 days, by remediating critical CVEs within seven days, and high, medium, and low CVEs within 14 days. Well-positioned to help organizations meet and exceed DoD cybersecurity directives, Chainguard was recognized among a competitive field of applicants to the P1 Solutions Marketplace whose solutions demonstrated innovation, scalability, and potential impact on DoD missions.
