Try android:layout_centerInParent="true" and remove the alignParentLeft attribute if you want the image centered in your layout.

If you only want to align it to the right, just use android:layout_alignParentRight="true".

<ImageView
    android:id="@+id/main_imgBreachAlert"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
    android:layout_marginRight="5dp" />
