#1 Snyk
Snyk was ranked as the #1 Container Security Tool of 2022. PeerSpot users give Snyk an average rating of 8 out of 10.
Nicholas S., Information Security Officer at a tech services company, says, the solution helps avoid the pain and the cost of trying to retrofit security in your code, exclaiming, "The dependency checks of the libraries are very valuable, but the licensing part is also very important because, with open source components, licensing can be all over the place. Our project is not an open source project, but we do use quite a lot of open source components and we want to make sure that we don't have surprises in there."
Cameron G., Security Software Engineer at a tech company, comments, "The most valuable features are their GitLab and JIRA integrations. The GitLab integration lets us pull projects in pretty easily, so that it's pretty minimal for developers to get it set up. Using the JIRA integration, it's also pretty easy to get the information that is generated, as a result of that GitLab integration, back to our teams in a non-intrusive way and in a workflow that we are already using."
#2 Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks
Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks was ranked as the #2 Container Security Tool of 2022. PeerSpot users give Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks an average rating of 8 out of 10.
PeerSpot user Luke L., Cloud Security Specialist at a financial services firm, explains, "You can also integrate with Amazon Managed Services. You can also get a snapshot in time, whether that's over a 24-hour period, seven days, or a month, to determine what the estate might look like at a certain point in time and generate reports from that for vulnerability management forums."
Another reviewer, a Director, Cloud Engineering at a pharma/biotech company, says the solution “Gives us security control gates and automated notifications in container orchestrator, but deploy is API-driven, not a built-in integration.”
A Security Architect at an educational organization, comments, "The application visibility is amazing. For example, sometimes we don't know what a particular custom port is for and what is running on it. The visibility enables us to identify applications, what the protocol is, and what service is behind it. Within Azure, it is doing a great job of providing visibility. We know exactly what is passing through our network. If there is an issue of any sort we are able to quickly detect it and fix the problem."
#3 NGINX App Protect
NGINX App Protect was ranked as the #3 Container Security Tool of 2022. PeerSpot users give NGINX App Protect an average rating of 8 out of 10.

A DevOps Engineer at a tech services company mentions “I like that Docker's main products of containers are very portable. Any possible issues, problems, or troubles are fixed with improvements of the Docker itself. Any constraints that Docker have been fixed with other products or features that Docker provides. The solution is very easy to use. It is intuitive and has good documentation.”
Another user, a Head of IT Architecture at a tech vendor, says that the solution “Cuts down on development time and allows for multiple spin-offs.”
#5 Aqua Security
Aqua Security was ranked as the #5 Container Security Tool of 2022. PeerSpot users give Aqua Security an average rating of 10 out of 10.
Patrick G., Technology Director at a tech services company, says, "The most valuable feature is the security.

If you compare it to other container security Aqua is not as caught up in terms of the migration.”
A Security manager, at a tech services company, also mentions that "The most valuable features are that it's easy to use and manage."
#6 Threat Stack Cloud Security Platform
Threat Stack Cloud Security Platform was ranked as the #6 Container Security Tool of 2022. PeerSpot users give Threat Stack Cloud Security Platform an average rating of 8 out of 10.
