Securing Docker Containers

4 weeks · 6-8 hours per week · BEGINNER

In this liveProject, you’ve just started a new role as a release engineer for the enterprise finance company FinShare. FinShare wants to modernize its outdated technology stack with containerization and you’ve been tasked with building an automated container workflow for future production use. But there’s a big catch: FinShare operates under some major regulatory requirements and any breaches in security could be disastrous for the company’s reputation and bottom line. Your challenge is to make sure that FinShare’s Docker containers are built to be secure, robust, and compliant. To do this, you’ll implement your security team’s requirements, identify and fix governance issues, create signed and trusted container images, and optimize your container builds—all based on the specialist guidance of your expert colleagues.
