What is Container Security Software?
Container security software is software designed to protect containerized applications and environments from security vulnerabilities, threats, and attacks. Containers, which are used to deploy and run applications in isolated environments, present unique security challenges due to their dynamic and ephemeral nature. Container security software helps secure containerized environments by providing capabilities such as vulnerability scanning, runtime protection, access control, and image security. These tools monitor container configurations and activity to detect anomalies, ensure compliance with security policies, and mitigate risks like container escapes or unauthorized access. By enhancing the security of containers and container orchestration platforms (like Kubernetes), these solutions enable organizations to securely deploy and manage applications in cloud-native and microservices environments. Compare and read user reviews of the best Container Security software currently available using the table below. This list is updated regularly.

Panoptica
Cisco
Panoptica makes it easy to secure your containers, APIs, and serverless functions, and manage software bills of materials. It analyzes internal and external APIs and assigns risk scores. Your policies govern which API calls the gateway permits or disables. New cloud-native architectures allow teams to develop and deploy software more quickly, keeping up with the pace of today’s market. But this speed can come with a cost—security. Panoptica closes the gaps by integrating automated, policy-based security and visibility into every stage of the software-development lifecycle. Decentralized cloud-native architectures have significantly increased the number of attack surfaces. At the same time, changes in the computing landscape have raised the risk of catastrophic security breaches. Here are some of the reasons why comprehensive security is more important than ever before. You need a platform that protects the entire application lifecycle—from development to runtime.Starting Price: $0 -
