Release 1.44

June 15, 2026 

Enhancement in CIS Docker Compliance Scan for Containers

Earlier, Qualys Container Security started supporting CIS Docker Compliance for Images. With this release, Qualys Container Security Sensor now supports CIS Docker Compliance Benchmark v1.7.0 scans for containers across all runtimes.
Previously, CIS Docker compliance scanning was limited to Docker-based environments only. With CS Sensor 1.44, this capability has been extended to include the following runtimes.

• Containerd
• Podman
• CRI‑O

Support of Container Static Scanning in Docker

Earlier, CS Sensor used to support only Dynamic scan for containers. With this release, it offers Static Scan for the containers as well.

Container Static Scanning is now supported on sensors running with storage driver: Docker containerd-snapshotter

If your container scanning is currently disabled, please contact Qualys Support to enable and start using Container Static Scans.
