+A container image that includes the [rda-converter](https://gitlab.devforce.disa.mil/up/rda-converter) application.
+
+To update this image, first get the URL to the version of the rda-converter from [nexus](https://nexus.devforce.disa.mil/#browse/search/maven=attributes.maven2.groupId%3Dbdp.rda%20AND%20attributes.maven2.artifactId%3Drda-converter). Then, download the artifact and calculate the SHA256. Update the `hardening_manifest.yaml` with the URL and SHA256 of the artifact.
