Start Secure in the AI Era: Accelerating AI Threat Readiness with WizOS
Summary
Modern AI systems can now automatically discover software vulnerabilities and create working attacks, making the time between when a vulnerability is discovered and when it's exploited much shorter. Container base images (the foundational software packages that applications run on top of) are a major security risk, accounting for 39% of critical vulnerabilities in production containers. The source recommends using hardened, minimal base images that are continuously patched to reduce the amount of vulnerable code in your systems.
Solution / Mitigation
According to the source, WizOS container images provide hardened, continuously patched base images with SLAs (service level agreements, or guaranteed timelines) for patching: 7 days for critical CVEs and 14 days for high and medium severity ones. Organizations can adopt WizOS by setting up a pull-through cache or mirroring pipeline from the WizOS container registry to their own private artifact registry, then updating their manifest to reference new patched versions or triggering their CI pipeline daily to automate the process. WizOS also maintains a secured package repository allowing developers to customize images while maintaining security, builds images directly from source code in a hardened pipeline with strict security controls, and signs every daily build with cryptographic provenance for verification.
