RapidFort is a container security platform designed to reduce vulnerabilities and attack surface in containerized workloads without requiring code changes. The platform focuses on helping government agencies, DoD programs, and Defense Industrial Base contractors harden containers and meet federal compliance requirements. The platform provides access to over 17,000 curated near-zero CVE container images hardened with STIG/CIS benchmarks aligned with NIST SP 800-70 guidance. It uses deep binary scanning through its Analyzer component to identify exploitable CVEs and generate Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) and Runtime Bill of Materials (RBOM) to show which components actually execute in production. The Optimizer component automatically removes unused binaries, libraries, and packages to achieve up to 95% CVE reduction and up to 90% attack surface reduction. The CART component runs CIS/STIG checks and exports SBOM/RBOM artifacts to support compliance documentation. RapidFort supports CMMC 2.0, NIST 800-171/800-53, FedRAMP, StateRAMP, and continuous Authorization to Operate (cATO) requirements. It provides drift detection between approved baselines and running software, and generates audit-aligned security evidence for authorization officials. The platform works across multiple clouds, on-premises, and restricted network environments, providing continuous vulnerability reduction and traceable lineage tied to each release.
