SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Centralize and simplify security operations across JFrog Xray by guiding how to scan for vulnerabilities, manage policies and watches, generate SBOMs, and monitor runtime security.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Vulnerability scanning across artifacts, builds, and runtime to identify CVEs and license risks.
  • Policy and watch management to automatically trigger scans, enforce remediation, and monitor results.
  • Runtime monitoring and Advanced Security features (SAST, secrets detection, contextual analysis) to reduce noise and improve risk visibility.

Use Case: Integrate Xray into CI/CD to automatically flag high-severity issues during builds and promotion.

Quick Start

Configure your JFrog environment and run an initial artifact scan to see vulnerabilities and policy results surface in Xray.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scan artifacts for vulnerabilities in a CI/CD pipeline?▼

To scan artifacts for vulnerabilities in a CI/CD pipeline, integrate Xray to automatically flag high-severity issues during builds and promotion. It identifies CVEs and license risks by leveraging scanning and policy features across your artifacts and builds.

How do Xray policies and watches work for security remediation?▼

Xray policies and watches automatically trigger scans, enforce remediation, and monitor results across artifacts. Creating policies and watches allows you to define security thresholds and automatically block builds that violate your vulnerability rules.

Can I generate an SBOM for my software builds?▼

Yes, you can generate an SBOM for software builds by querying vulnerability data and SBOMs through Xray. This provides visibility into components and allows you to interact with REST/API endpoints to drive automated remediation.

How does runtime monitoring detect security risks in applications?▼

Runtime monitoring detects security risks by continuously assessing artifacts and builds at runtime. It leverages Advanced Security features like SAST, secrets detection, and contextual analysis to reduce noise and improve risk visibility.

What is the best way to reduce false positives in vulnerability scanning?▼

The best way to reduce false positives in vulnerability scanning is using Xray's contextual analysis and Advanced Security features. These evaluate the actual runtime context and application usage to reduce noise and improve risk visibility.
