C1 Container CI Mapper (aka Container Vulnerability Orchestrator)

Track Container Lineage, Map Vulnerabilities, and Orchestrate Remediation Across CI/CD Pipelines in ServiceNow

Containers are fast. Ephemeral. Dynamic. And that makes them hard to manage—especially when it comes to vulnerability tracking, inheritance, and impact analysis.

The C1 Container CI Mapper, an extension of ServiceNow Vulnerability Response, gives security teams deep visibility into container lineage, from image creation to runtime deployment, while automating the mapping and remediation of vulnerabilities across your container lifecycle.

Built for DevSecOps teams using modern CI/CD pipelines, this solution closes the visibility gap between container image registries, deployed workloads, and known vulnerabilities—all within the ServiceNow platform.


Key Features

Container Lineage Mapping

  • Automatically traces the origin of container images across CI/CD pipelines.
  • Visualizes dependency trees between base images, layers, libraries, and services.

Vulnerability Inheritance Detection

  • Identifies vulnerabilities not only in deployed containers—but also in their parent images.
  • Highlights common vulnerabilities across multiple containerized apps for batch remediation.

Integration with CI/CD Toolchains

  • Connects with popular build pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps) and image registries (e.g., Docker Hub, AWS ECR, GitHub Container Registry).
  • Syncs vulnerability scans from tools like Prisma, Aqua, Twistlock, Qualys, and more.

ServiceNow VR Native Integration

  • Automatically creates and updates Vulnerable Items and Configuration Items (CIs) in ServiceNow.
  • Links container vulnerabilities to underlying apps, systems, and business services for impact-aware triage.

Remediation Orchestration & Ownership Mapping

  • Assigns remediation tasks to the DevOps team responsible for the image or deployment pipeline.
  • Supports automated or semi-automated remediation workflows using ServiceNow Flow Designer or Integration Hub.

Container Risk Dashboard

  • Monitor container vulnerability exposure, inheritance frequency, and remediation velocity by service, team, or environment.
  • Filter by severity, exploitability, or system impact.

Benefits

  • Bridge the Gap Between DevOps and Security
    Map and remediate vulnerabilities across container builds and deployments—without slowing development.
  • Visualize Container Impact Chains
    Understand how a single vulnerable base image may affect dozens of production services.
  • Accelerate Remediation
    Group and assign vulnerabilities by shared origin for coordinated response.
  • Support Modern Vulnerability Management Programs
    Extend ServiceNow VR into ephemeral infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud-native workloads.
  • Reduce MTTR (Mean Time to Remediate)
    Enable fast, focused response by tying vulnerabilities to the exact DevOps team or image owner.

Use Cases

  • Cloud-native organizations deploying workloads via Kubernetes, ECS, or OpenShift.
  • DevSecOps teams integrating vulnerability management into CI/CD pipelines.
  • Security Operations Centers (SOCs) needing traceability of container-based risk exposure.
  • Regulated industries where container-level vulnerabilities must be tracked and reported for compliance.
  • ServiceNow VR customers wanting to close the gap between static CIs and ephemeral workloads.

Customer Proof

“The C1 Container CI Mapper gave us visibility into vulnerabilities we didn’t even know existed—buried in parent images and layered containers. Now we can trace every risk back to its source, assign it to the right DevOps owner, and act fast—all without leaving ServiceNow.”
Director of DevSecOps, Global Cloud Platform Provider
