New!
Here’s the uncomfortable truth every software company knows but rarely admits out loud:
We're shipping faster than we secure.
Vulnerabilities pile up, compliance gets complicated, and security teams drown in operational debt. With 30-60% variance between scanners on what constitutes a “real” vulnerability, you’re left playing an endless game of whack-a-mole. But here’s the thing—it doesn’t have to be this way. It’s a choice.
At Root, we’re flipping that narrative. We’re not helping you manage your backlog; we’re eliminating it altogether.
And yes, we have the technology and audit trail to back it up.
AI-Powered Automated Vulnerability Remediation
Root Automated Vulnerability Remediation (“AVR”) isn’t another “nice-to-have” tool—it’s essential infrastructure for anyone serious about secure, high-velocity software delivery. Root patches vulnerabilities automatically within your containers and base images in 60-120 seconds, without requiring rebasing or manual triage. Unlike platforms that charge $60,000 per image per year and rely on walled-garden approaches, Root integrates transparently and seamlessly into your existing CI/CD workflows, enhancing—not hindering—your development speed.
Powered by agentic AI with under 24-hour turnaround on new vulnerability patches, Root intelligently analyzes packages, rapidly applies upstream patches and custom backports, and transparently validates every outcome. We don’t just patch—we document, attribute, and prove it every step of the way with comprehensive SBOM and VEX attestation.
Secure-by-Design Isn’t Just a Buzzword
Traditional security solutions that aren’t embedded into workflows either get overlooked or create friction. Root disrupts that norm. Our platform provides:
- Continuous monitoring across your software supply chain
- Automated vulnerability remediation without slowing your developers
- Developer-friendly integrations (Docker, Jira, GitHub, GitLab, ECR, just to name a few)
For CISOs and security leaders seeking to transform their container security from reactive to proactive while proving clear ROI, Root delivers quantifiable results from day one.
Securing the AI-Native Future with RootMCP
AI-driven development is no longer a distant future—it’s already changing software security landscapes. Root built the Model Context Protocol (MCP) precisely for this new AI-native reality. MCP securely orchestrates AI agents, ensuring every action and decision is fully traceable, accountable, and auditable.
With RootMCP, developers can code exactly how they want, knowing that secure, fully patched, and compliant containerized code is delivered directly into their workflow—right in tools like Cursor or Claude coding sessions.
We reject black-box solutions. Our AI-driven approach shows every patch, providing transparent and accountable security.
Open Source Integrity, Auditable Intelligence
Our commitment extends beyond securing your software—we aim to strengthen the open-source ecosystem itself. Every patch Root delivers maintains open-source licenses and transparency standards. We actively contribute to OWASP, CNCF, and champion open specifications like CycloneDX because we believe open collaboration is essential.
Container Security That Actually Works
The container security industry has stagnated with tools that merely identify problems without solving them. While $500M+ has poured into vulnerability scanning technologies, the fundamental problem remains: who’s going to fix all those vulnerabilities?
Don’t Just Secure—Prove It
Today’s security landscape demands accountability—boards, auditors, and customers want evidence, not promises. Root transforms vulnerability remediation into visible, measurable security progress with comprehensive attestation that satisfies even the strictest compliance requirements. Our platform delivers proven results that security leaders can confidently present to stakeholders, turning security from a cost center into a strategic business advantage.
