SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the process of identifying and prioritizing security vulnerabilities across your software supply chain, from container images to source code and dependencies.

Core Features & Use Cases

Multi-Layer Scanning: Integrates container, SAST, DAST, SCA, and secret scanning.
SBOM Generation: Creates CycloneDX or SPDX Software Bills of Materials for compliance.
Risk-Based Prioritization: Uses CVSS, EPSS, and KEV data to focus on the most critical threats.
Use Case: Integrate this Skill into your CI/CD pipeline to automatically scan container images, identify critical vulnerabilities, generate an SBOM, and fail the build if high-risk issues are found.

Quick Start

Use the managing-vulnerabilities skill to scan the container image 'myapp:latest' for critical vulnerabilities.

FAQPage Schema

How do I automate vulnerability scanning in a CI/CD pipeline?▼

Automate vulnerability scanning by integrating multi-layer security tools like Trivy, Grype, Semgrep, and Gitleaks directly into your CI/CD pipeline to scan source code and container images. This ensures continuous compliance and secure deployments.

What is risk-based vulnerability prioritization using CVSS and EPSS?▼

Risk-based vulnerability prioritization uses CVSS, EPSS, and KEV data to rank security threats. This approach helps teams focus remediation efforts on the most critical vulnerabilities rather than being overwhelmed by raw scan results.

How do I generate an SBOM for container images?▼

Generate an SBOM for container images using automated DevSecOps workflows that produce CycloneDX or SPDX formatted documents. This provides a formal inventory of software components required for supply chain compliance.

Does Trivy work with Grype and Semgrep for multi-layer security scanning?▼

Trivy works with Grype, Semgrep, and Gitleaks within multi-layer security scanning workflows. Integrating these tools in CI/CD pipelines enables comprehensive coverage across container images, source code, dependencies, and secrets.

How do I fail a CI/CD build when critical vulnerabilities are found?▼

Fail a CI/CD build when critical vulnerabilities are found by configuring automated DevSecOps workflows to evaluate risk-based prioritization data. The pipeline blocks deployments if high-risk issues exceed acceptable thresholds.
