Aqua Security

Code-to-runtime CNAPP that ranks CVEs by live workload behavior and can stop an exploit without waiting for a patch.

Proof of life. Raised $60M at a $1B-plus valuation, January 2024

Aqua started in containers and now covers images, serverless, VMs, Kubernetes, and AI apps from build through production. Runtime sensors enforce policy on the node, including air-gapped and mainframe Linux, so a known or unknown exploit can be contained locally. Open-source Trivy, Tracee, and kube-bench feed the same platform that enterprises use for FedRAMP-grade deployments.
