Description

The Azure Container Registry (ACR) team is pleased to introduce continuous patching, a new capability that simplifies vulnerability management for container images stored in your registry. 


The continuous patching feature automates the detection and remediation of operating system(OS) level vulnerabilities in container images. By scheduling regular scans with Trivy and applying security fixes using Copa, you can maintain secure, up-to-date images in your registry—without requiring access to source code or build pipelines. Simply customize the schedule and target images to keep your Azure Container Registry(ACR) environment safe and compliant.
