Aqua Security announced its participation in the launch of the AWS CloudFormation Public Registry, with a published listing to enable customers to easily discover, seamlessly provision, and scale the Aqua Cloud Native Security Platform into their Amazon Web Services environments.

The AWS CloudFormation Public Registry launch expands on the registry and infrastructure-as-code CloudFormation provisioning templates that have been available for AWS services and tools, with a public and searchable registry containing third-party resource types.

As an AWS Partner, Aqua can publish and maintain its own listings on the AWS CloudFormation Public Registry, using CloudFormation templates as a single method for provisioning logic to automate and streamline how the platform is installed across multiple accounts and regions.

The listing in the AWS CloudFormation Public Registry and validated support for AWS CloudFormation provisioning templates builds on Aqua's longstanding collaboration with AWS. As an AWS Container Competency Partner, Aqua has invested in capabilities to secure AWS services like Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service, AWS Lambda, AWS Fargate, BottleRocket, Amazon Elastic Container Service Anywhere, and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud instances running on Graviton2 processors.

"Developers are increasingly using infrastructure as code to automate the provisioning of cloud resources. They want to use AWS CloudFormation to discover, provision, and manage third-party solutions that integrate with AWS," said Amjad Hussain, Director, AWS CloudFormation, AWS. "With the launch of CloudFormation Public Registry, developers can now easily manage Aqua Security resources as code, just like any other AWS resource."

With broad support for AWS services, Aqua facilitates security and DevOps collaboration for the cloud native journey, provides an additional layer of security for AWS build and artifact pipelines, validates and remediates AWS controls, and protects workloads running on advanced services through behavioral profiling.
