Abstract

An illustrative method includes accessing, by a data platform, an alert generation policy associated with an entity that deploys containers in a cloud environment, the alert generation policy modifiable by the entity and specifying criteria for providing alerts associated with one or more vulnerabilities associated with the containers; detecting, by the data platform based on a scan of a container included in the containers, a vulnerability associated with the container; determining, by the data platform, an attribute of the vulnerability; and generating, by the data platform when the attribute meets the criteria specified in the alert generation policy, an alert associated with the vulnerability.
