The correct answer is A. From the Azure portal modify the Pricing tier settings.

Explanation: Azure Security Center offers a container image scanning feature that can help identify vulnerabilities and security risks in container images stored in Azure Container Registry. However, this feature is only available in the Standard tier of Azure Security Center.

Therefore, to ensure that the container images uploaded to Registry1 are scanned for vulnerabilities, you need to upgrade the Azure Security Center subscription from the Free tier to the Standard tier. This can be done by modifying the Pricing tier settings in the Azure portal.

Here are the steps to modify the pricing tier settings:

  1. Log in to the Azure portal (https://portal.azure.com/).
  2. Navigate to the Azure Container Registry named Registry1.
  3. Click on the Security Center tab in the left-hand menu.
  4. On the Security Center page, click on the Pricing & settings tab.
  5. Under the Subscription pricing tier section, select Standard.
  6. Click Save to apply the changes.

After upgrading to the Standard tier, Azure Security Center will automatically scan the container images uploaded to Registry1 for vulnerabilities.
