Nextlink OnAir | Advanced Container Security
Container technology is proven to deliver significant benefits such as improving productivity, portability, and scalability for code development and deployment. Containers have a lower footprint/attack surface than virtual machines and provide an extra degree of protection by separating programs. However, malicious attacks across containers or inside the shared resources of the underlying host are still possible in containerized settings. With the advantages provided by containers, adoption of the technology has increased rapidly in years. Sensitive data, critical production workload deployed in containers would become a hot target to attackers. It is of utmost importance to apply appropriate strategy to mitigate container security threats.
Join our DevOps specialists on Friday, 25 February at 3 pm to learn more about:
- How to leverage the identity and authorisation, network security and secret management features of the AWS platform for containers, such as Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) and Amazon Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes (Amazon EKS).
- Discuss best practices for the security of your container images such as scanning and penetration testing to detect potential vulnerabilities.
