What our shortlists say about the one we picked.
Best for: Government and regulated teams enforcing container policy
Anchore earns its place for regulated work, because each rule maps to a control, which gives you audit evidence without manual mapping. That suits suppliers who answer to FedRAMP or DISA. It is a policy and compliance product first, so if you need runtime threat blocking, plan for another layer.
