Docker security

Docker security involves protecting applications and data within containers—small, isolated environments that run software consistently across different systems. It uses features like user restrictions, secure defaults, and isolation to prevent vulnerabilities. Docker also offers tools for scanning images for security issues and managing access controls. While containers are lightweight and efficient, they share the host system’s resources, so it’s important to keep Docker updated, use trusted images, and follow best practices to minimize risks. Overall, Docker security focuses on safeguarding the containers, their contents, and the host system from threats.
