security in containers

Container security involves protecting software environments that bundle applications and their dependencies to run reliably across systems. It ensures that the containerized applications are isolated from other processes, preventing unauthorized access or data leaks. Security measures include controlling who can create or modify containers, scanning for vulnerabilities, applying updates, and isolating containers from each other. This helps maintain system integrity, prevent cyberattacks, and ensure sensitive data remains secure, all while enabling flexible and efficient deployment of applications in diverse environments.
