During the preparation of a container-based environment, an organization uses automated files to define compute, networking, and storage settings. The team wants to find and fix misconfigurations in these files prior to resource creation. Which scanning approach best addresses this need?
An active technique that tests components after they initialize to uncover vulnerabilities
A passive process that looks for unusual traffic across network interfaces
A method that inspects the configuration files before launching the resources
A container analysis method that flags outdated library versions in images
A static technique that reviews the code at rest uncovers syntax problems, secrets, and insecure settings in deployment files before they are launched. Runtime-only or network-based methods often miss issues contained in these setup scripts, and container image reviews do not focus on environment templates.
