scanning-containers-with-trivy-in-cicd

Integrates Aqua Security's Trivy scanner into CI/CD pipelines to detect OS package and application dependency CVEs, Dockerfile misconfigurations, and issues in filesystems or git repositories, and to enforce severity-based quality gates that block vulnerable images from being deployed. Use when building Docker images in CI/CD and needing automated vulnerability scanning and pass/fail gates before registry push or production deployment.

# Scanning Containers with Trivy in CI/CD

## When to Use

- When building Docker container images in CI/CD and needing automated vulnerability scanning before registry push
- When establishing quality gates that prevent images with critical or high CVEs from reaching production
- When compliance requirements mandate vulnerability scanning of all container images before deployment
- When scanning IaC files (Dockerfiles, Kubernetes manifests) alongside container image scanning
- When needing a single tool to scan OS packages, language-specific dependencies, and misconfigurations

**Do not use** for runtime container security monitoring (use Falco), for scanning running containers in production (use runtime agents), or when only scanning application source code without containerization (use SAST tools).
