Secure image management
As organizations adopt containers and container orchestration platforms such as Kubernetes, it becomes increasingly important to secure the container images used to deploy applications. Containers, by design, run isolated from the host and other containers, making them a secure way to deploy applications. However, the security of a container is only as strong as the security of the underlying image it is built from. Vulnerabilities in the base image or the software packages included in the image can compromise the security of the entire container and the host.
Therefore, organizations must implement secure image management practices to ensure the security of their container deployments. This involves identifying and mitigating vulnerabilities in the images used to build containers, and ensuring that the images deployed to production are secure and up to date. In this section, we will discuss the importance of secure image management and the best practices...
