The Aqua Container Security Platform (CSP) delivers comprehensive, single-pane-of-glass security for containerized applications regardless of orchestration, cloud or virtualization environments. In addition to Linux-based containers, Aqua now features production-ready security for Windows Containers-based applications, which are already being used in production by Aqua customers.

Aqua's Windows Containers solution enables organizations to secure their image development pipeline, ensure that only trusted images can be deployed, and enforce runtime controls that include detection and blocking of suspicious activities, nano-segmentation of container app networking, and secure delivery of secrets to containers with no downtime.

"Windows Server containers are becoming a key enabler for customers building new cloud applications as well as breathing new life into their existing applications.  With Aqua's support for Windows Server containers these customers gain a great and simple option for security, monitoring and auditing,"  said Nir Ben Zvi, Principal Program Manager, Windows Server Security.

Aqua CSP 2.6 additionally includes more than 40 customer-requested features, among them:

"As enterprise use of containers continues to mature, the real needs of enterprises for native container application security emerge,"  said Amir Jerbi, CTO and co-founder of Aqua Security. "With Aqua 2.6 we continue to commit to our 'secure once, run anywhere' objective, adding production-ready support for Windows containers, in addition to our support for Linux containers and all major orchestrator stacks."

The Aqua team is at DockerCon EU in Copenhagen this week, and will be featured in several sessions:

DockerCon EU attendees are invited to attend the sessions, and learn more about Aqua 2.6 at booth #G10 at the expo hall.
