Hardened Containers Made Simple
Secure Your Containers Without Risky Upgrades
Aikido already scans your containers and auto-fixes vulnerabilities. Now with Root.io, we provide hardened, safe-by-default base images for advanced base image security.
- Same image, safer
- Fix unpatched CVEs
- No breaking changes
Fix Unpatchable Base Image Vulnerabilities
Upgrading to a newer base image can break builds, introduce runtime bugs, or require days of testing — and some CVEs don’t even have upstream fixes.
That’s where hardened images come in.
When Aikido detects a critical or high-severity CVE in your base image that can’t be fixed by upgrading safely, AutoFix will now suggest a hardened alternative: fully patched by Root.io, as drop-in replacements.

Why This Matters:
- Stay on your current base image
- Fix critical CVEs even if upstream maintainers haven't
- Avoid breaking changes and retesting cycles
- Automatically receive a PR through Aikido’s AutoFix
Built into Your Existing Workflow
Aikido AutoFix works directly in your set up. No new tools, no extra infrastructure.
Just smarter, safer images— automatically.
