About Chainguard...
Chainguard is on a mission to be the trusted source for open source, enabling engineering teams to innovate at full speed with confidence that every line of code they build on is secure and reliable. Founded in 2021 by world-class engineers with deep experience in foundational open source projects like Kubernetes, Sigstore, and Distroless, Chainguard was created to solve one of software’s most pressing challenges: delivering speed, security, and scalability without compromise. Today, our secure open source artifacts, including containers, libraries, and virtual machine images, empower organizations to eliminate software supply chain threats, accelerate delivery, and scale the services their users depend on.
At Chainguard, we believe that true security should not slow innovation. It should enable it. Our leadership team brings decades of expertise from leading technology, infrastructure, and security companies, united by a passion for making open source software trustworthy by default. Guided by values like customer obsession, intentional action, and a collaborative culture, we build products that reduce engineering toil, simplify compliance, and dramatically shrink attack surfaces so teams can focus on building great software. Trusted by top global organizations and proven to reduce vulnerabilities and remediation effort, Chainguard is helping shape a future where building securely is the norm, not the exception.
