Project Hummingbird to deliver modern software as hardened, verifiable container images

Organizations’ demands for “zero-CVE” (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) software inspired the creation of Project Hummingbird, a new catalog of minimal, hardened images built to empower developers and ease security and compliance concerns. 

We will choose our most requested images, ship them free of known CVEs, and harden them to help keep them that way. Clean vulnerability reports only matter if these new container images deliver what organizations actually need and can be maintained. That’s why we want feedback based on your experience trying these images.

Purpose for Project Hummingbird

Right foundation

Give developers the right software foundations with a smaller attack surface.

Verified content

Enable users to verify the complete contents of an image with validated software bill of materials (SBOMs) to meet modern compliance requirements.

Sustainable images

Use images that are genuinely useful and stable, knowing they're shipped free of known vulnerabilities and have already passed functionality testing.

Project Hummingbird can give customers the speed and minimalism they need to innovate, backed by the trust and support they expect from Red Hat.
