Case Study: NVIDIA secures containers and scales DevSecOps with Anchore Enterprise

Nvidia gets up and running in an hour with Anchore

Nvidia, a major semiconductor and information technology company, faced significant challenges securing its extensive use of containers, which included thousands of containerized apps and hundreds of thousands of containers. Their existing security tools were not effective for containers, generating too many false positives and creating bottlenecks, especially for their large NVIDIA GPU Cloud (NGC) containers. To address this, they turned to vendor Anchore for a solution, initially using their open source tool but later transitioning to Anchore Enterprise for a more scalable process.

Anchore implemented its Anchore Enterprise solution, which provided robust APIs for easy integration into Nvidia's diverse CI/CD pipelines and a scalable architecture that prevented delays. The solution drastically reduced false positives by leveraging vendor-specific vulnerability feeds and offered a flexible policy engine for decentralized compliance checks. This resulted in improved developer and security team productivity, centralized metrics for the security team, and the ability to quickly scale their container security program while saving money.
