At the end of last year we launched vulnerability scanning options as part of the Docker platform. We incorporated scanning options into the Hub, so that you can configure your repositories to automatically scan all the pushed images. We also added a scanning command to the Docker CLI on Docker Desktop for Mac and Windows, so that you can run vulnerability scans for images on your local machine.

The experience of scanning on Linux is identical to what we have already launched for Desktop CLI, with scanning support for linux/amd64 (x86-64) Docker images.

The major difference with scanning on Linux is that instead of upgrading your Docker Desktop, you will need to install or upgrade your Docker Engine.
