Since containers are a primary means for developing and deploying
today’s microservices, keeping them secure is highly important.But
where should you start?A solid container security workflow often
begins with assessing your images.These images can contain a wide
spectrum of vulnerabilities.Per Sysdig’s latest
report, 75% of images have vulnerabilities considered either
highly or critically severe. There’s good news though — you
can patch these vulnerabilities!And with better coordination and
transparency, it’s possible to catch these issues in development
before they impact your
In this guest post, David Balakirev, Regional CTO at Adnovum,

With its container-friendly design, the Alpine Docker Official Image
(DOI) helps developers build and deploy lightweight,
cross-platform applications.It’s based on Alpine Linux which
debuted in 2005, making it one of today’s newest major Linux
distros.
While some developers express security concerns when using
relatively newer images, Alpine has earned a solid
reputation.Developers favor Alpine for the following
reasons:
That’s a wrap!Community All-Hands has officially come to a
