What it is

Aqua Security is paid software for securing development workflows, cloud workloads, containers, and Kubernetes environments. Its Dev Security plan includes code repository discovery and scanning, container image vulnerability and risk scanning, Dynamic Threat Analysis, Infrastructure-as-Code scanning, and SBOM generation and analysis. Cloud Security adds cloud and Kubernetes workload visibility, agentless workload scanning, real-time runtime protection, drift prevention, and compliance reporting. The Platform plan provides end-to-end software-development lifecycle visibility, risk prioritization, contextualized risk scoring, compliance and custom reporting, and role-based access control. Aqua lists runtime protection, Kubernetes security, image and registry scanning, admission control, and SBOM generation among its capabilities. Deployment is hybrid, with Linux and web platforms listed. Pricing is available on request and varies by repository count for Dev Security or workload count for Cloud Security; the Platform plan has no public price.
