The feature of container image scan detects high-risk and medium-risk system vulnerabilities, application vulnerabilities, malicious samples, configuration risks, and sensitive data in images. The feature also provides suggestions on how to handle these issues and end-to-end vulnerability management.

Limits

Container image scan is a value-added service provided by Security Center and must be separately purchased. Only users of the Advanced,Enterprise, Ultimate, and Value-added Plan editions can purchase container image scan. If you use this feature, you are charged based on the number of times images are scanned and the number of scanned images. The fee per scan for each image is USD 0.3.

Note Users of the Basic edition can upgrade Security Center to the Advanced, Enterprise, Ultimate, or Value-added Plan edition to purchase container image scan. Users of the Anti-virus edition can upgrade Security Center to the Advanced, Enterprise, or Ultimate edition to purchase container image scan.
