Conducted a comprehensive 4-hour workshop on Docker security best practices, covering container security from development to production deployment.
Workshop Structure
Module 1: Container Security Fundamentals (1 hour)
- Container isolation mechanisms
- Linux namespaces and cgroups
- Security implications of containerization
- Common attack vectors and mitigation strategies
Module 2: Secure Image Building (1 hour)
- Dockerfile best practices for security
- Base image selection and vulnerability management
- Multi-stage builds for minimal attack surface
- Image scanning and vulnerability assessment
Hands-on Labs
Each module included practical hands-on exercises using real-world scenarios and security tools.
Module 3: Runtime Security (1 hour)
- Container runtime security configurations
- Resource limits and security policies
- Network security for containerized applications
- Monitoring and logging for security events
Module 4: Production Deployment (1 hour)
- Kubernetes security best practices
