Under the DoD’s Platform One initiative, developers can now access a central binary repository of secure, Iron Bank-certified resources that have been hardened to the DoD’s specifications. This container registry has Continuous Authority to Operate (cATO), allowing developers to easily push validated code into production more quickly.

“Rapid software development is an imperative for all our customers, which includes the U.S. military, but it should never come at the expense of security,” said Lou Doerr, Head of U.S. Commercial Unit, Oteemo. “Knowing JFrog’s Platform is Iron Bank-certified makes it easy to recommend them for use by public and private organizations needing software delivery solutions that bake-in security from inception.”

According to the Internet Crime Report, the FBI received nearly 2,500 ransomware complaints in 2020, up 20% from 2019, costing citizens nearly $29.1 million. Platform One aims to ensure all government entities can work with a collection of approved, hardened, cloud-native DevSecOps solutions along with collaboration tools, cybersecurity tools, open-source code, artifact repositories, and development tools. JFrog Artifactory provides a single, reliable source of truth for binary packages that follow the DevOps lifecycle from development to deployment at the edge. JFrog Xray works with JFrog Artifactory to enable multi-layer analysis of each binary or container image and flags any security vulnerabilities or compliance compromises to ensure software quality.

“We understand software needs to be hardened and trusted in order for the Federal government to rely on JFrog for their mission critical applications,” said Shlomi Ben Haim, Co-founder and CEO, JFrog. “Our vision is to enable all organizations to ‘shift left’ to bake security into every stage of development and seamlessly deploy updates across geographies, from ground to cloud, to any device throughout the software supply chain with ease and peace of mind.”

Iron Bank is the DoD Centralized Artifacts Repository (DCAR) of digitally signed, binary container images including both Free and Open-Source software (FOSS) and Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS). All artifacts are hardened according to the Container Hardening Guide, which allows software built in the system to be automatically authorized for use, a security process that usually takes months. Containers accredited in Iron Bank have DoD-wide reciprocity across classifications. Over 800 certified containers are available today including those offered by JFrog partners such as AWS, Docker, Microsoft Azure, Oracle, RedHat, and VMWare.
