The security industry doesn't need more ways to find vulnerabilities. AI is accelerating discovery, but remediation remains largely unchanged. The gap between the two keeps growing. That's why we believe secure foundations should be the default, not a premium feature:

Today we're launching Minimus Community Edition: Hundreds of near-zero CVE, built-from-source container images are now available for free. No trial. No auth wall. No signup. Our entire gallery. Hardened, minimal, continuously maintained: buff.ly/xQhyMSV

CIS, NIST, and FedRAMP are often discussed together, but they solve different problems at different layers of the security stack. Learn how the frameworks fit together, why containerized environments change the compliance equation, and what teams should prioritize for audits:

CISA's new BOD 26-04 marks a major shift in vulnerability management: prioritizing remediation based on real-world risk, not just CVSS scores. Learn about the new 3-day remediation timeline and what organizations need to do to operationalize SSVC-based prioritization:

Open source dependencies are one of the biggest software supply chain risks. Security teams need more than vulnerability data. They need ways to evaluate trust before packages enter their environments.

We're honored to be named a 2026 Intellyx Digital Innovator Award winner. At Minimus, we're focused on helping organizations reduce container risk with secure, minimal images that fit into existing development workflows. Congratulations to the other innovators recognized: buff.ly/DXG5qJ2

Most teams manage infrastructure and application code through Git-based workflows. Why should container images be any different? minicli lets you manage image recipes as YAML, version control them in Git, and integrate image management into existing CI/CD workflows.

As AI makes vulnerability research faster and more scalable, security teams will need better ways to consume fixes, reduce attack surface, and keep pace with change. Check out the full webinar: buff.ly/ml7sBtf

A lot of container security work is really just ongoing maintenance work. Minimus eliminates as much of that operational burden as possible, so teams spend less time building images, patching vulnerabilities, preparing for audits, and coordinating fixes. Learn more:

How Minimus Saves Time on Container Security and Compliance - Minimus

Reduce container security and compliance overhead with hardened Minimus images that automate patching, hardening, attestations, and updates.

Platform teams spend a surprising amount of time managing container image maintenance instead of building infrastructure that moves the business forward. This blog breaks down 3 ways hardened images help platform teams save time across engineering, security, and compliance:

3 Ways Hardened Container Images Save Platform Teams Time - Minimus

Managing container images is time-consuming and repetitive. Minimal, hardened images reduce vulnerabilities and free teams to focus on higher-value work.

The EU Cyber Resilience Act has a detail that catches a lot of teams off guard: scope is determined by where your customers are. If EU customers download or deploy your software, you're in scope. Learn more: buff.ly/gFnddzw #CyberResilience #ContainerSecurity #CRA #DevSecOps #SoftwareSupplyChain

What happens when AI can autonomously chain zero-days across major operating systems and browsers? Join us for a technical discussion on what Anthropic’s Claude Mythos preview means for defenders, attackers, and the future of application security. 🎟️ Save your spot: buff.ly/srlUQA7

Historically, some vulnerabilities were so difficult to find that only nation-state level attackers could realistically exploit them. John Morello and Bruce Schneier discuss whether AI could fundamentally change that and how we can defend against it. Watch the full video: buff.ly/Ckn237P

Public images often take months, or even years, to remediate known vulnerabilities. Minimus images reduce that window to days, helping teams spend less time patching & more time shipping secure software. Learn how MTTR impacts container security and why faster remediation matters:
