Container Security

Container Security covers the images you build and pull: the registries they live in, the vulnerabilities and secrets inside them, the Dockerfiles that produce them, the policies that decide whether they may deploy, and the SBOMs and compliance evidence you keep about them.

Where: left navigation → Container Security.

Container Security — Coverage tab: 3 registries, all scanned, 278 findings by severity across registries, and top registries by severity

What you get

CapabilityDetail
Registry connectionsAWS ECR, Google Artifact Registry, Azure Container Registry — using a connected cloud account or inline credentials — plus Docker Hub. Images are synced, browsed and scanned in place.
Image scanningTrivy + Grype for OS and language-package vulnerabilities (with fix versions), Syft for the SBOM, secrets and misconfigurations in image layers; Quick Scan for any public image, registry scans for your own.
Dockerfile scanning14 native rules — root user, latest tags, secrets in ENV, ADD from URLs, missing HEALTHCHECK — graded before the image is ever built.
Admission policiesAllowed registries, maximum critical/high/medium counts, block latest, require signatures — validated in the UI or from CI with one call.
Registry webhooksPush events from ECR, GCR/Artifact Registry, ACR and Docker Hub trigger an automatic scan of the new image.
SBOM lifecycleGenerate CycloneDX, SPDX or Syft JSON SBOMs per image, keep them, download them.
Compliance reportsCIS Docker Benchmark 1.6, NIST 800-53, PCI DSS and SOC 2 per image, registry or account, with a posture trend.
CoverageRegistries scanned / scheduled / uncovered / stale, same model as Cloud Security.

How it flows

Prerequisites

  • Manage Container Security to add registries, create policies and run scans; View Scans to read results.
  • For cloud registries: pull permission on the registry — ecr:GetAuthorizationToken + read (in ReadOnlyAccess) on AWS, roles/artifactregistry.reader on GCP, AcrPull on Azure — see Required Permissions — Container registries.
