Carbonetes Orb is now available at CircleCI and can be included in your pipeline stages.

Features

Carbonetes Orb provides comprehensive container analysis and policy evaluation as a fully managed service. Carbonetes analyzes your container images for native code vulnerabilities, software composition analysis (SCA), license types, bill of materials, malware and secrets. Carbonetes' powerful policy tool enables you to load standard policies or build, test and refine custom policies. It provides integrations with various container registries, CI/CD tools, as well as Slack and Jira.

Carbonetes Orb seamlessly integrates comprehensive container analysis directly into your CI/CD pipeline. Upon committing your code, the Carbonetes Orb automatically initiates a comprehensive container analysis scan. The results of that scan are compared to the applicable policy to determine whether the container should be built or not. The insight from the analysis and the policy evaluation are embedded right inside Carbonetes Orb making it easy to find and resolve issues without ever leaving CircleCI.

How it works

The plugin requires a valid Carbonetes credentials (email and password).

  1. Follow the instructions at the Orb Quick Start Guide to enable usage of Orbs in your project workflow.
  2. In the app build job, call the comprehensive/scan.
  3. Set up an environment variable (USERNAME), (PASSWORD), (REGISTRY_URI) on your CircleCI environment settings, which you can get from your Carbonetes account.
