Vulnerability Scanning
Introduction
The Vulnerability Scanning plugin by Devtron enables you to scan and detect vulnerabilities of your applications using Trivy/Clair. The Vulnerability Scanning plugin is recommended to be integrated into the Job Pipeline, especially when you are using external CI pipelines like Jenkins, GitLab, or GitHub Actions. Based on Vulnerability Scanning results, you can enforce security policies to either proceed with or abort the deployment process, giving you more control over your deployment process.
