Deep dives, practical guides, and incident analyses from engineers who build Safeguard. No fluff, no vendor FUD — just what you need to ship secure software.
What it takes to standardise on chiseled and distroless container images across an engineering organisation: which workloads benefit, which do not, and how to handle the operational quirks of imageless containers.
Service meshes are a control plane and a data plane and a supply chain risk surface all at once. This post covers the policy controls that matter in 2026 for sidecars, control planes, and mesh-issued certificates.
Operators are powerful, privileged, and often under-governed. This post covers the supply chain controls that keep operator installations from becoming the largest attack surface in your cluster.
Container security has matured significantly, but runtime protection remains a weak spot. Here's a practical guide to what works.
Helm charts are the most common Kubernetes deployment artifact and the least scrutinised. This blueprint covers chart provenance, signing, value validation, and the runtime correspondence checks that close the loop.
Why multi-architecture container images break assumptions baked into signing, SBOM, and attestation tooling, and how to build a multi-arch pipeline that stays verifiable.
Self-healing containers detect, remediate, and rebuild images when CVEs appear in their dependency closure. Here is how the GA feature works in practice.
A deep dive into the gcr.io/distroless/nodejs20-debian12 image: contents, attack surface, real-world CVE exposure, and where it fits in production.
LLM-generated Dockerfiles repeat the same six or seven mistakes. Here is the pattern catalog and how to catch them before they ship.
