Open Source Container Security: A Practical Guide
You can build a solid container security stack entirely from open source tools — here's which ones cover which layer, and where the gaps show up at scale.
Announcing Kubernetes workload protection in Snyk Container
Snyk added Kubernetes workload protection to Snyk Container. Here's what it does, why it matters now, and what security teams should ask before relying on it.
Docker Image Scanning: How It Works and What It Finds
Scanners don't run your container — they unpack it. How docker image scanning inventories layers, matches CVEs, handles distro backports, and where it belongs in your pipeline.
Docker Security Concerns: The Real List
Docker security concerns that actually cause incidents are narrower than most checklists suggest — root-by-default containers, exposed daemon sockets, and unpatched base images account for most real-world breaches.
Docker Vulnerability News: What Recent Container CVEs Mean for You
Keeping up with Docker vulnerability news matters because container escapes turn a compromised app into a compromised host. Here is how to read the headlines and act on them.
SBOM for Containers: 2026 Buyer's Guide
How to generate, manage, and act on SBOMs for containers in 2026: tool comparison, layered SBOMs, signing, and runtime drift detection.
Docker Images Format Explained: Layers, OCI, and Security
Understanding the Docker images format, from layers and manifests to the OCI spec, is the foundation for scanning, signing, and hardening what you ship.
What a Container Security Platform Should Actually Do
A container security platform has to cover images, registries, and running workloads. Here is what real coverage looks like and how to evaluate one.
Image Scanning
How container image scanning works, where tools like Aqua Security's Trivy fall short on noise and reachability, and what modern scanning workflows require.
Container Registry Scanning
How container registry scanning actually works, why Aqua's Trivy isn't enough on its own, what the xz-utils backdoor exposed, and how Safeguard prioritizes findings that matter.
Docker CIS Benchmark
A practical breakdown of the Docker CIS Benchmark's 100+ controls, the checks teams fail most, how Aqua Security handles compliance, and what audit failures actually cost.
Dockerfile Best Practices: Security, Size, and Build Speed
Most Dockerfiles are copy-pasted from a tutorial and never revisited. Here's what actually shrinks image size, closes the common security holes, and speeds up rebuilds.
