Understanding Container Hardening

Container hardening is the process of securing and strengthening the configuration settings and access controls of containers to reduce vulnerabilities and enhance their resilience to cyber threats. This involves implementing security measures such as applying patches regularly, disabling unnecessary services, employing strong authentication mechanisms, and monitoring container activity for suspicious behavior. By hardening containers, organizations can mitigate risks associated with unauthorized access, data breaches, and other security incidents.
