In the first part of this trilogy we focused on Docker 1.10 and its seccomp capabilities. In this post we’ll explore the authorization plug-in architecture, another feature which was released as part of Docker 1.10.

The new Docker 1.10 release has a host of new features, among them several security improvements that merit the attention of anyone using Docker to develop and run applications. I’d like to focus on three of these features in a short series of blogs: Seccomp profiles, Authorization Plug-in, and User Namespace Support.

This is the first in a two-part post. In this first part, I’d like to discuss how mainstream use of the cloud has turned the spotlight on the value of containers and the need to secure them. 

Although they have vastly different architectures, virtual machines (VMs) and containers both reliably run software when moved from one computing environment to another. Some have claimed containers will overtake the use of VMs, but until containers evolve to a level of sophistication and maturity that strongly …

We recently partnered with Sumo Logic to integrate Scalock’s solution with their continuous intelligence platform. Customers will now find it easier to make sense of the container security alerts and the logging process.

We once again have good news to share: Scalock is participating in another Linux Foundation initiative to help shape the global use of container technology.

It’s an exciting time to be a startup in the container industry. Containers are transforming how businesses develop and run applications – and Scalock is at the forefront of this technological shift, providing scalable security that covers the entire development-to-deployment lifecycle of containerized applications.
