In this article we are going to setup vulnerability scanning for Docker images in AWS ECR.<\/strong><\/p>\n Docker<\/strong> is an open-source platform that automates the deployment of applications inside software containers. Containers<\/strong> are lightweight, portable, and self-sufficient units that encapsulate all the dependencies required to run a software application, including the code, runtime, system tools, libraries, and settings. Docker<\/strong> uses containerization technology to package applications into containers, enabling developers to build, ship, and run applications consistently across different environments, such as development, testing, and production.<\/span><\/p>\n ECR<\/strong>\u00a0is a fully managed Docker container registry service provided by\u00a0Amazon Web Services<\/strong>. It allows you to store, manage, and deploy Docker container images securely.\u00a0ECR<\/strong>\u00a0is tightly integrated with other AWS services, particularly\u00a0Amazon ECS<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service<\/strong>, making it easy to deploy containerized applications on AWS infrastructure.<\/span><\/p>\n If you would like to follow a video tutorial please use our YouTube video.<\/span><\/p>\nWHAT IS DOCKER:<\/h2>\n
