RapidFort has teamed up with GitLab to deliver hardened container images for GitLab’s regulated Self-Managed Deployments. This allows development and security teams to find and eliminate vulnerabilities within the GitLab workflows they currently use without needing changes to application code or migration to a proprietary operating system.
The partnership unites GitLab’s DevSecOps platform with RapidFort’s combination of minimal and near-zero CVE container images, attack surface management, and continuous runtime monitoring. The images keep GitLab’s existing functionality and version tags, enabling teams to adopt them without changing how they build and ship software.
In addition, GitLab’s on-premises images are now accessible through the RapidFort Curated Catalog, a library of 48,000-plus base and third-party container images spanning every major Linux distribution. Curated GitLab images will keep GitLab’s existing functionality, version tags, and configuration surface. Key characteristics of curated GitLab images from this partnership include near-zero CVE posture, FIPS 140-2/140-3 alignment, Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG)-hardened configurations, minimal attack surface, and audit-ready compliance evidence.
