Vulnerability scanning applications must implement privileged access authorization to all container platform components, containers, and container images for selected organization-defined vulnerability scanning activities.

Description

<VulnDiscussion>In certain situations, the nature of the vulnerability scanning may be more intrusive, or the container platform component that is the subject of the scanning may contain highly sensitive information. Privileged access authorization to selected system components facilitates more thorough vulnerability scanning and protects the sensitive nature of such scanning. The vulnerability scanning application must utilize privileged access authorization for the scanning account.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
