Case Study: Kakaku.com improves container security and operational efficiency with Aqua Security

Internet Services Provider Kakaku.com Improves Security and Operational Efficiency with Aqua

Kakaku.com, a Tokyo-based internet services provider, faced the challenge of securing its containerized application lifecycle after strategically adopting Kubernetes. The company needed to move beyond basic image scanning to implement comprehensive, end-to-end security that would protect applications from development through to runtime production without slowing down its deployment speed.

By implementing the Aqua cloud native security platform, Kakaku.com integrated automated security directly into its CI/CD pipeline. Aqua provided vulnerability scanning, runtime protection, and threat blocking. This solution resulted in a sixfold improvement in operational efficiency, reducing image scanning time from nearly an hour to just ten minutes, and enabled the company to confidently achieve its security and DevSecOps integration goals.
