​
Security Overview

Registries include a built-in security summary:
  • Total Vulnerabilities
  • Severity Breakdown (Critical, High, Medium, Low, Info)
  • Open vs Closed Vulnerabilities
  • Aggregate CVSS
  • Remediation Progress
  • Last Scan Date
  • Tested Status

​
Asset Relationships

Registries can be linked to other assets within AIM:
  • Applications
  • Repositories (e.g., GitLab repos)
  • Related infrastructure assets
This helps teams understand how container registries connect to the broader environment.

​
Data Sources (Adapters)

AIM integrates with external providers to discover registry data.
  • Example: GitLab Integration
  • Automatically fetches registry and repository information

​
Why This Matters

The Registries module helps teams:
  • Maintain visibility over all container registries
  • Identify vulnerable container sources
  • Track ownership and accountability
  • Understand relationships between registries and applications
  • Monitor registry activity and lifecycle status
