  • RapidFort and Aqua Security announce Trivy Connect partnership for enhanced Trivy scanner.
  • Integrates RapidFort Curated Images, advisories and remediation data into Trivy vulnerability detection.
  • Enables near-zero CVE images with up to 99.9% CVE reduction without code changes.
  • Trivy accurately reports status of packages patched with fixes from other distributions.
  • Helps development and security teams reduce false positives and operational burden.
  • Integration generally available immediately for cleaner third-party scan results.

Trivy Connect Partnership Enables Near-Zero CVE Images

Under Trivy Partner Connect, Trivy integrates RapidFort security advisories, enabling it to accurately report the status of packages in RapidFort Curated Images. This includes access to enhanced information including when RapidFort uses fixes extracted from other distributions or adapted from otherwise incompatible versions to patch affected packages. This new integration ensures Trivy recognizes each fix and is able to accurately report the near-zero CVE status of RapidFort Curated Images.

Even when an application is well-built, teams can spend countless hours chasing vulnerabilities in base images, dependencies, libraries, and operating system packages, many of which turn out to be false positives or already mitigated in ways traditional scanners do not understand. RapidFort Curated Images shift vulnerability elimination left without shifting more work onto developers. Combined with Trivy's support for RapidFort advisories, teams get cleaner third-party scan results, more accurate security posture, and a faster path from development to production.

Reducing Operational Burden of Vulnerability Management

As a result, development and security teams can start with near-zero CVE images, reduce the operational burden of vulnerability management, and spend less time sorting through scanner noise. Instead of managing false positives, developers can focus on building and releasing their products with greater confidence.

Trivy unifies vulnerability detection, misconfiguration scanning, and secret identification across the entire software development lifecycle. RapidFort's platform enables organizations to eliminate risk at scale through hardened near-zero CVE container images, runtime profiling, attack surface management, and independently malware-scanned open-source images.

This new integration is generally available immediately, helping joint customers achieve more accurate vulnerability results and greater confidence in the security of images they deploy.
