Right, I deal with NIST 800-53 based things where we have heavy albeit manual auditing. We pull from Iron Bank mostly but also employ Nexus Firewall. People can’t pull direct Docker Hub.

Yes, if you need someone else to work on securing your Docker base images for free, you can get more info about the US Air Force Platform One IronBank at https://docs-ironbank.dso.mil/faq

> Currently there is no cost to contributors or users for Iron Bank. It is a service currently funded by the US Department of Defense.

You can poke around for their public Dockerfile's to build yourself at https://repo1.dso.mil/explore (for example: https://repo1.dso.mil/dsop/opensource/debian/debian12.x/debi...) but to do much useful you'll need an account.

Another organization in Platform One, Big Bang uses IronBank containers to implement a reference DevSecOps CI/CD architecture; I mention them because they maintain a mirror at https://github.com/DoD-Platform-One/bigbang
