An XCCDF Rule

Description

<VulnDiscussion>Monitoring the container images and containers during their lifecycle is important to guarantee the container platform is secure. To monitor the containers and images, security tools can be put in place. To fully utilize the security tools available, using images formatted in an industry standard format should be used. This allows the tools to fully understand the images and containers. One standard being worked on by industry leaders in the container space is the Open Container Initiative (OCI). This group is developing a standard container image format.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
