How Tanzu delivers secure software supply chains

Addressing these five areas of concern will allow you to integrate security in your software development process and help to mitigate software supply chain attacks.

1

Secure application source code

A Tanzu Labs service engagement helps your team implement strategies to ensure code is secure. App accelerators, included with Tanzu Application Platform, provide guardrails for developers that ensure security and compliance.

2

Manage app dependencies

3

Secure CI/CD systems

Tanzu Application Platform provides a deploy time policy to allow app operators to introduce policy in their Tanzu Application Platform supply chain (CI/CD) that blocks any unsigned images.

4

Secure image build and registry

Tanzu Build Service as part of Tanzu Application Platform builds images and automatically patches them when their dependencies fall out of date, reducing time to remediate CVEs at scale.

5

Secure runtimes

With Tanzu Kubernetes Grid and Tanzu Mission Control, developers get easy access to preconfigured clusters that meet compliance and security requirements. Tanzu Service Mesh helps secure workloads, microservices, APIs, and data in transit, preventing attackers from sniffing network traffic.

“Over half of developers (52.4%) felt security policies stifle their innovation. When security is so simplified and accessible that development teams don’t even realize it’s there, then security not only meets its traditional goals of reducing risks but—more importantly—becomes a business enabler by allowing development teams to be more innovative while increasing compliance and business revenue.”
