Fix Recommendation

Configure the container platform registry to use an approved vendor repository to ensure the latest images containing security-relevant updates are installed within 30 days unless a time period is directed by an authoritative source (IAVM, CTOs, DTMs, STIGs, etc.).

Check Contents

Review documentation and configuration to determine if the container platform registry inspects and contains the latest approved vendor repository images containing security-relevant updates within 30 days unless the time period is directed by an authoritative source (IAVM, CTOs, DTMs, STIGs, etc.).

If the container platform registry does not contain the latest image with security-relevant updates within 30 days unless a time period directed by the authoritative source, this is a finding.

The container platform registry should help the user understand where the code in the environment was deployed from, and must provide controls that prevent deployment from untrusted sources or registries.
