Clair Reviews

Clair Description

Clair is an open source project that allows static analysis of vulnerabilities in application containers. This includes OCI and docker. The Clair API allows clients to index their container images, and then match it against known vulnerabilities. Our goal is to provide a better understanding of the security of container-based infrastructure. Clair, a French term that means clear, bright, transparent, was the name of the project. Clair's representation for a container image is called Manifests. Clair uses the fact that OCI Layers and Manifests are content-addressed in order to reduce duplicated work.
