At Minimus, we’re excited to announce a new partnership with Wiz, the leading Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP). This collaboration unites the originators of the container security market with the company that has redefined how enterprises secure cloud-native environments at scale.
Our foundation is built on deep expertise: Minimus's founders authored NIST SP 800-190, the authoritative U.S. government guidance on securing containerized applications, and previously created Twistlock, the first commercial container security platform. Wiz is similarly transforming CNAPP by integrating visibility, context, and control into one streamlined, scalable platform—already trusted by over 40% of Fortune 100 enterprises.
Wiz established itself as the fastest-growing cybersecurity company in history by providing clear, actionable visibility, prioritized risk context, and an agentless architecture. Its simple, API-driven integration with cloud providers enables complete visibility across the application lifecycle, correlating this information into an intuitive security graph.
Combining Wiz’s comprehensive visibility with Minimus’s secure-by-default, minimalistic images creates powerful results: teams can now achieve clear visibility and eliminate more than 95% of container vulnerabilities at the outset. This dramatic reduction in vulnerabilities delivers an improved security posture and accelerates triage, prioritization, and remediation efforts by reducing the alerts that security teams deal with on a daily basis.
The partnership between Minimus and Wiz delivers clear, complementary benefits:
