Using the Modify Scanning Scope option, you can define conditions to automatically exclude selected scopes from scanning. These conditions can be based on the registry, repository, or tag. After you set the scope, the exclusion conditions are automatically applied to newly discovered images in the account.

To modify the scanning scope, do the following:

  1. Navigate to SettingsData Sources.

  2. In the Cloud Provider section, locate the provider where your assets are stored and click View Details.

  3. On the Cloud Instances page, click the instance name for which you want to modify the scope.

  4. Under the Accounts section, select the account, right-click, and choose Edit.

  5. Under the Registry Scanning Scope, enable Modify Scanning Scope.

  6. From the list of images, select the image you want to modify.

  7. Alternatively, you can also filter for a specific image by clicking the Filter icon and selecting Registry, Repository ,or Tags option and then adding the desired value to refine your search.

    The search results are applied automatically, even if you do not select Save.

  8. Click Save to confirm your modifications.

This ensures that the specified scanning scope is customized based on your needs.
