Manage Reports in Container Security

All reports and schedules are listed in the Reports and Schedules tabs, respectively. For report jobs, you can view and download the reports, rerun the report job, and delete them. For schedules, you can view the schedule summary, pause or resume the schedules, and delete them.

Reports

The Reports tab lists the on-demand and scheduled report jobs. A scheduled job is added to this tab only when the schedule is triggered.

The Expires in column shows the time remaining before a report gets removed from your account. Note that the deletion job runs once a day. Therefore, if your report is expiring today, you may see the value as scheduled for today before it is actually removed.

View & Download Reports

When your report shows the Completed status, it is ready to be viewed and downloaded. Select Download from the Quick Actions menu to download the report in CSV format.

Use a search query to quickly find a report by report name.

For each row in the report, you’ll see image or container details (Examples: repository, image or container id, and so on) followed by vulnerability details (Examples: QID, title, severity, and so on) for a single detected vulnerability. If the image or container has multiple vulnerabilities it will be listed multiple times (Examples: 10 rows for 10 vulnerabilities on the same image or container).

  • CycloneDX - The CycloneDX Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) includes metadata and outlines a collection of software elements, organized into components, services, and dependencies.

The Next Launch column under Schedules indicates when the schedule is set to trigger next time.
