Banyan Collector is a framework designed for analyzing container images and extracting information from containerized environments. The tool provides capabilities for static analysis of container images, allowing users to examine the contents and structure of containers without running them. It supports script execution within container environments to gather data and perform automated analysis tasks. The framework includes policy enforcement features that enable organizations to validate container configurations against predefined security standards and compliance requirements. Users can implement custom invariant checking to ensure containers meet specific operational or security criteria. Banyan Collector can be deployed as a standalone executable for direct system integration or run as a containerized application on Docker hosts. The extensible architecture allows for custom plugins and scripts to be integrated into the analysis workflow. The tool supports automated information gathering from container images, including metadata extraction, file system analysis, and configuration assessment. It provides structured output formats for integration with other security tools and CI/CD pipelines.
