When the Container Scan task is running, Kaspersky Endpoint Security scans containers and images for viruses and other malware. You can run multiple Container Scan tasks simultaneously.

Integration with Docker container management system, CRI-O framework, and Podman and runc utilities is supported.

To use the task, a license that includes the corresponding function is required.

Container scan task settings

Setting	Description
Scan	This group of settings contains buttons that open windows where you can configure the container scan settings and general scan settings.
Task priority	This section lets you specify a priority for a scan task: Low— the scan task is executed with a low priority: no more than 10% of processor resource consumption. Execution of the task takes more time, but the application allocates resources for other tasks. Normal (default value) — the scan task is executed with a normal priority: no more than 50% of all processor resources. High — the scan task is executed with a high priority, without limiting the consumption of processor resources. Specify this value to perform the current scan task faster.
Actions for infected objects	This group of settings contains the Configure button. Clicking this button opens the Actions for infected objects window, where you can configure the actions that the application performs on detected infected objects.
