Catching security vulnerabilities early in code
JFrog Xray is a cutting-edge software component analysis tool, designed to help organizations enhance their software security and ensure regulatory compliance. In the era of CI/CD, where code changes are frequently integrated and delivered, ensuring the security of these deliveries becomes paramount. JFrog Xray seamlessly fits into this paradigm by providing continuous security scanning for software artifacts, including Docker images.
In the context of Jenkins, the integration of JFrog Xray elevates the build and deployment process. With Jenkins being the automation engine and JFrog Artifactory acting as the universal artifact repository, incorporating Xray into the workflow allows every build pushed through Jenkins to be automatically scanned for vulnerabilities. This means that before a Docker image is stored in Artifactory, it can be rigorously scrutinized for any known security risks, ensuring that only secure, compliant images...
