This episode of the Chainguard Explained series introduces how Chainguard helps organisations secure the modern software supply chain by building and delivering hardened, minimal, and continuously updated software assets. The session explores the challenges of open-source security, including vulnerability management, software provenance, and the growing CVE burden faced by development teams. Fraser Brown demonstrates how Chainguard’s secure build environment, Chainguard Images, and Chainguard Libraries help reduce attack surfaces, improve software transparency, and enable a more proactive, secure-by-design approach to application security.
