Development teams face increasing pressure to secure their software supply chains, demanding trusted images, streamlined deployments, and reliable tooling. Customers seek long-term security partners rather than one-off vendors.
To address this need, we’re introducing Helm charts in the Docker Hardened Images (DHI) Catalog. These charts simplify Kubernetes deployments and establish Docker as a trusted security partner throughout the development and deployment lifecycle.
Bringing Security and Simplicity to Helm Deployments
Helm charts are the preferred method for packaging and deploying applications to Kubernetes, favored by 75% of users, according to CNCF surveys. With rising security incidents, confidence hinges on integrating security and traceability into every deployment.
DHI Catalog Helm charts simplify deployments to production Kubernetes environments. Teams no longer need to worry about insecure configurations or vulnerable dependencies. Each chart leverages our hardened build system, providing signed provenance and clear traceability for complete transparency in deployments.
Supporting Customers Amidst Broadcom Changes
Recent changes from Broadcom impact Bitnami’s distribution model, moving many images and charts to commercial subscriptions, archiving older versions without updates, and limiting free :latest tags.
Docker provides a clear alternative for affected teams:
- Free Docker Official Images paired with upstream Helm charts offer stable, open-source deployments.
- Docker Hardened Images with DHI Catalog Helm charts provide enterprise-grade security and compliance.
Many teams have previously relied on Bitnami. The DHI Catalog’s Helm charts now enable these teams to partner with Docker for secure, compliant deployments spanning development through deployment.

What Helm Charts in the DHI Catalog Offer
The Helm charts are available today in beta, allowing customers to test and provide feedback that directly influences their refinement before general availability.
Key features include:
- DHI by Default: Charts automatically reference Docker Hardened Images, ensuring deployments inherit DHI’s security and compliance benefits.
- Regular Updates: New upstream versions and CVE fixes are incorporated into chart releases.
- Enterprise-Grade Security: Built with an SLSA Level 3 build system and include signed provenance for enhanced compliance.
- Customer-Driven Development: Your feedback shapes the charts’ evolution.
