Critical Challenges We Solve

Evolving Security Threats

Recent vulnerabilities can target servlet processing and can lead to remote code execution. NES delivers timely patches for these emerging threats that would otherwise remain unaddressed in end-of-life Tomcat versions.

Spring Dependencies

Spring Boot applications can be particularly vulnerable when running on outdated Tomcat versions, creating compound security risks. NES addresses vulnerabilities at the servlet container level, protecting your Spring applications from underlying threats.

Compliance Violations

Running unsupported software increasingly results in audit findings and regulatory penalties. NES helps maintain compliance with SOC 2, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and FedRAMP by providing ongoing security updates and documentation.

Custom Configuration Preservation

Years of tuning and customization can make Tomcat migrations risky. NES secures your existing implementation without requiring changes to your carefully crafted configurations.
