Harness Makes Registry For Integrating Artifacts Into DevOps Workflows Available
devops.com, Tuesday, February 24th, 2026
Harness today made generally available an Artifact Registry it has added to its portfolio of DevOps tools and platforms. At the same time, Harness also revealed it has added a Dependency Firewall to the registry that enables DevSecOps teams to enforce controls at the point of ingestion.
Rather than relying on downstream scans after a package has already entered a build, Dependency Firewall evaluates requests in real time to automatically block components with known vulnerabilities, license violations, excessive severity thresholds, or untrusted upstream sources.
Shankar Hariharan, a product director for Harness, said the Artifact Registry represents a major step toward unifying the management of artifacts that organizations deploy and the source code that is managed via their DevOps tools and platforms.
