Zero-CVE Images for Distributed Edge
Expanso and Chainguard deliver hardened, vulnerability-free container images purpose-built for distributed data processing at the edge.
/ The Challenge
The Supply Chain Challenge
Distributed systems multiply the attack surface. Every edge node running vulnerable container images is a potential breach point. Traditional patching cycles can't keep up when you have hundreds of nodes across dozens of locations.
of container images in production have known high or critical CVEs.
average time to patch a critical vulnerability across distributed fleets.
with Chainguard images - vulnerabilities are eliminated at the source.
/ Joint Solution
Expanso + Chainguard
Secure-by-default container images meet distributed data processing for defense-in-depth at the edge.
Zero-CVE Base Images
Expanso edge nodes run on Chainguard images with zero known vulnerabilities - no patching treadmill, no risk window.
SBOM Transparency
Every Chainguard image ships with a complete Software Bill of Materials. Know exactly what's running on every edge node.
FIPS 140-2 Compliance
Chainguard's FIPS-validated images let Expanso run in regulated environments - government, defense, and financial services.
Automated Rebuilds
Chainguard images are rebuilt daily from source. New upstream fixes ship automatically - no manual intervention required.
Minimal Attack Surface
Distroless images strip away shells, package managers, and unnecessary binaries. Less code means fewer vulnerabilities.
Signed and Verified
Every image is cryptographically signed with Sigstore. Verify provenance and integrity before deploying to any edge node.
/ Built For
Built For Regulated Industries
When compliance isn't optional, the Expanso + Chainguard stack gives security teams confidence in every edge deployment.
Defense and Government
FIPS-validated cryptographic modules, zero-CVE images, and complete SBOMs meet the requirements for FedRAMP, NIST, and DoD IL environments. Run classified workloads at tactical edge locations with confidence.
Financial Services
Process trading data, fraud detection signals, and compliance events at the edge with images that pass the strictest vulnerability scans. Full audit trails from SBOM to deployment log.
