Deep dives, practical guides, and incident analyses from engineers who build Safeguard. No fluff, no vendor FUD — just what you need to ship secure software.
A plain glossary for the columns in a container scan report: installed version, fixed version, source package, layer, digest, vendor status and more.
Six common beliefs about fixing container scan findings, checked against Docker, Debian and Go documentation: what holds up and what does not.
A container scan report mixes operating system packages and application dependencies. How to separate them, who fixes each, and why version formats differ.
Hospital reviewers increasingly ask about container images. Show base image choice, scans at build and after release, and a clear rebuild routine.
Plain definitions of image terms that show up in security reviews: base image, builder stage, scratch, tag, digest and layer, and why each matters.
Image age, the time since a running container image was built, predicts accumulated vulnerabilities. How to measure it and set a rebuild target.
Base images are dependencies you ship. Scan them, pin them, rebuild on a schedule and keep records so they sit inside the same SOC 2 controls as libraries.
Customers ask about open source inside container images. Explain base image choice, layer scanning, rebuild cadence and what to say about an old base.
A vulnerable component can be unused, or used and shielded by another control. They need different labels, evidence and reviews. How to choose.
