The Docker Verified Publisher Program{:target="blank" rel="noopener" class=""} provides high-quality images from commercial publishers verified by Docker.

These images help development teams build secure software supply chains, minimizing exposure to malicious content early in the process to save time and money later.

Images that are part of this program have a special badge on Docker Hub making it easier for you to identify projects that Docker has verified as high-quality commercial publishers.

For content publishers

The Docker Verified Publisher Program provides several features and benefits to Docker Hub publishers. The program grants the following perks based on participation tier:

• Verified publisher badge
• Priority search ranking in Docker Hub
• Insights and analytics
• Vulnerability analysis
• Additional Docker Business seats
• Removal of rate limiting for developers
• Co-marketing opportunities

Verified publisher badge

Images that are part of this program have a badge on Docker Hub making it easier for developers to identify projects that Docker has verified as high quality publishers and with content they can trust.

Insights and analytics

The insights and analytics{: target="blank" rel="noopener" class=""} service provides usage metrics for how the community uses your Docker images, and grants you insight into your user's behavior.

You can view number of image pulls by tag or by digest, and get breakdowns by geolocation, cloud provider, client, and more.

You can use the view to select the time span you want to view analytics data and export the data in either a summary or raw format.

Vulnerability analysis

Docker Scout{: target="blank" rel="noopener" class=""} provides automatic vulnerability analysis for DVP images published to Docker Hub. Scanning images ensures that the published content is secure, and proves to developers that they can trust the image.

You can enable scanning on a per-repository basis, refer to vulnerability scanning{: target="blank" rel="noopener" class=""} for more information about how to use it.
