Image Scanning
Image Scanning
Container Image Scanning identifies vulnerabilities and security risks within container images before they are deployed to any environment. Container images commonly include operating system packages, third-party libraries, application code, and configuration — any one of which can harbor CVEs, misconfigurations, or embedded secrets.
OpsMx Delivery Shield integrates Trivy and Grype to scan every layer of every container image — providing comprehensive visibility into what is running inside each deployable unit.
Key Capabilities
CVE Detection
Known vulnerabilities in OS packages and application dependencies — matched against NVD, GitHub Advisories, and Linux Distribution notices
Layer-by-Layer Scanning
Scans every layer of a container image — including base OS, installed packages, and application code
Secrets Detection
Identifies API keys, tokens, and passwords accidentally embedded in image layers
Misconfiguration Detection
Flags images running as root, with excessive privileges, or with exposed ports
SBOM Generation
Automatically generates a full SBOM per image in CycloneDX or SPDX format
Periodic Deployed Image Scans
Trivy triggers recurring scans on already-deployed images as new CVEs are published — not just at build time
Policy-Based Gating
High-severity findings automatically block image promotion via the Deployment Firewall
Supported Registries
Docker Hub · Amazon ECR · Google Container Registry · Google Artifact Registry · Azure Container Registry · JFrog Artifactory · GitLab Container Registry · Quay
Benefits for the User
Vulnerabilities are caught at the image layer — before they are deployed to any environment
Continuously updated CVE data ensures newly published vulnerabilities surface on running workloads, not just at next build
SBOM per image supports SEBI CSCRF, NIST 800-53, and supply chain compliance requirements automatically
