Overview

APIs for Container Security are now available for integration into your environment and automation of repetitive tasks!

Use the Image Scanning APIs to get information about when scans were performed, their source and risk summary as well as identify vulnerabilities in your environment.
Use the Management APIs to manage hardening policies that combine predefined and user-defined policy rules that describe the target configuration of Kubernetes resources.

Container Security
All API calls require an API key with appropriate permissions, see Authentication for details

There are two sets of APIs:

Image Scanning APIs - use these to search and view results of image scans and vulnerability assessments
- Account Analysis Overview API - provide summary metrics and visibility of trends over time of vulnerabilities in your environment.
- Image Analysis Inventory API - Get lists of Clusters, Namespaces and Repositories that are part of the monitored container environment.
- Scan Log API - Get historical information about when scans were preformed, their source and risk summary.
- Vulnerabilities API - Search for vulnerabilities using the CVE to find affected clusters, images and workloads and get statistics about vulnerabilities in your environment.
Management APIs
- Management API - Define Kubernetes hardening policies which combine predefined and user-defined policy rules that describe the target configuration of Kubernetes resources.
