Docker Scout is a software product for container image security analysis. Analyzes container images for software components, vulnerabilities, and supply chain risks. It can be evaluated by teams looking to improve their existing development or operational processes. Check the official documentation to confirm compatibility, licensing, and deployment requirements.
Steampipe addresses SQL queries across cloud services. Using SQL to inspect cloud services is a clever fit for teams that already know relational queries and want ad hoc audits. It is not a replacement for a managed alerting pipeline. Someone still needs to schedule queries and respond to results.
