Container Scanning

Container scanning analyzes Docker images for vulnerabilities and misconfigurations. By addressing issues before deployment, it ensures robust security for containerized environments and production systems.

5 Common Issues Addressed by Container Scanning

• Vulnerable software packages embedded in container images.
• Misconfigured Dockerfiles leading to insecure deployments.
• Outdated or unpatched base images introducing risks.
• Lack of visibility into containerized environments.
• Non-compliance with security policies for container deployments.

Why Needs to Be Adopted

Misconfigured or vulnerable container images can compromise entire applications. As containers are widely used for deployment, securing them is critical to prevent breaches and protect sensitive data.
