Step 1: Create a private Hub repo

Docker Security Scanning is a service currently offered for images stored in Docker Hub private repositories. In this step you will create a new private repository within your Docker Hub namespace.

NOTE: This step assumes that you have a DockerHub account that will allow you to create a new private repo. If you have used all of the private repos on your account you will need to re-use one of them. If you do this you will need to take care not to interfere with images you already have stored in the repo. The only alternative is to upgrade to a plan that offers more private repos.

1. Log in to Docker Hub with your Docker ID.

2. Click the Create Repository + button.

1. Give the repo a name, short description, and make sure that Visibility=private then click Create.

Now that you have created a new private Docker Hub repo, you can proceed to the next step.
