Chainguard has partnered with FINOS for better security of open source technologies in the financial sector. The open source security project is aimed at developing secure software systems in the AI era.
This collaboration will speed up the use of secure open source solutions. Financial organizations will be able to increase their software safety and lower risks. Further, the partnership will encourage the implementation of software supply chain security. The company provides skills in securing software containers and artifacts. Consequently, it will support various initiatives led by FINOS in financial technology.
“Open source is the foundation of both modern software and AI-driven development. As AI accelerates how code is written, financial institutions cannot afford to build on software they can’t trust,” said Dan Lorenc, CEO and Co-founder, Chainguard. “FINOS brings the industry together to solve this challenge collaboratively, and we’re excited to help establish secure, trusted foundations that allow developers and AI agents to build safely at scale. The future of software development will be AI-native, which requires it to be secure by default.”
Collaboration Strengthens Secure Open Source and AI-Driven Innovation
The FINOS will continue to innovate in the fintech sector through open collaboration. On the other hand, the organization will contribute its expertise in cybersecurity solutions that cater to enterprise-level needs. Therefore, organizations will be able to implement their secure and scalable AI-based systems. Moreover, the open-source security initiative will ensure compliance with regulations. In turn, financial institutions will feel confident while implementing new-age technologies. Lastly, the collaboration will also promote innovations in AI-based financial services. Overall, the open-source security collaboration is an indication of a strategic step towards innovation and trustworthiness.
“Financial services is entering a new era where AI, open source, and cloud-native infrastructure are fundamentally reshaping how the industry builds and operates software,” said Gabriele Columbro, Executive Director, FINOS. “In such a highly interconnected industry, no single institution can solve the resulting security, governance, and resilience challenges alone. We’re excited to welcome Chainguard’s deep software supply chain expertise to the FINOS community to help translate industry-wide principles into practical, production-ready open source projects and standards that firms can implement at scale.”
