There's a lot of flexibility with containers, as they can be deployed on top of any bare-metal server, virtual machine, or platform-as-as-service (PaaS) environment. Developers have embraced Docker containers on public clouds because they don't need help from an IT operations team to spin them up.A software container is simply a thin package of an application and the libraries that support the application, making it easy to move a container from one operating system to another. This makes it possible for a developer to build an application and then take all the source code and supporting files and basically create something like a zip file so the container can be deployed just about anywhere. It contains everything the application needs to run, including code, runtime, system tools and system libraries.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here]]> 2017-03-09T13:38:00+00:00 http://www.networkworld.com/article/3179349/security/how-to-achieve-security-via-whitelisting-with-docker-containers.html#tk.rss_security www.secnews.physaphae.fr/article.php?IdArticle=333098 False None None None Network World - Magazine Info CIA documents leaked Tuesday revealed that the agency has developed EFI (Extensible Firmware Interface) rootkits for Apple's Macbooks.
