echo

Eliminating container vulnerabilities at the source is critical to securing the software supply chain. The Echo–Wiz integration helps organizations move beyond reactive vulnerability management by standardizing on secure-by-design base images that are automatically patched and hardened. This silences scan noise, removes the risk of false positives in vulnerability reporting, and enables you to hyper-focus on real application risk. Together, Echo and Wiz enable teams to simplify remediation and accelerate the adoption of cleaner, more secure container foundations.

Market challenge

As AI continues to accelerate software development, attack surfaces are expanding faster than ever, and teams simply can’t keep up. The majority of container vulnerabilities are inherited from open-source base images, as opposed to being introduced by application code, meaning engineers build on top of extremely vulnerable infrastructure before writing a single line of code. Scans are flooded with noise, and teams wind up wasting hours chasing vulnerabilities.

The better together story

Echo and Wiz address complementary sides of the container security problem: Echo eliminates vulnerabilities at the source with secure-by-design base images, while Wiz provides deep visibility and context across cloud environments. Together, they close the gap between detection and sustainable remediation.

Wiz scans Echo’s vulnerability-free container images to validate that they are, in fact, secure. As updated images move through existing CI/CD pipelines, Wiz validates that risk is reduced in both images and runtime workloads. The result is fewer alerts, faster closure of findings, and a container security posture that stays clean over time instead of regressing with every rebuild.

Security and platform teams want to reduce container vulnerability noise, accelerate remediation, and maintain a secure cloud posture without hurting development. Especially in the age of AI and cloud visibility, teams need a scalable way to address the large volume of vulnerabilities inherited from base images while preserving visibility and risk prioritization across cloud environments.

Challenge

Most container vulnerabilities originate from open-source base images. These inherited CVEs flood scans with repetitive findings across services and rebuilds, creating noisy reports, time-consuming manual patching workflows, and vulnerability backlogs that are extremely difficult to resolve.

Solution

Echo and Wiz work together to close the gap between detection and durable remediation. Wiz provides visibility into container images and running workloads across cloud environments, prioritizing risk based on exposure, attack paths, and runtime context. Echo eliminates inherited vulnerabilities at the source by delivering secure-by-design, CVE-free base images that replace vulnerable base layers through existing CI/CD pipelines. Wiz then validates during scanning that risk is reduced across both images and runtime workloads, helping teams reduce alert fatigue, accelerate remediation, and maintain a strong container security posture over time.
