As innovations in the world of application development and data computation grow every year, the “attack surface” of these technologies grows as well. The attack surface has to be understood from two sides—from the attacker’s side and from the organization being attacked.

Container environments are highly dynamic and require continuous monitoring, observability, and security. Since container security is a continuous practice, it should be fully integrated into the entire development and deployment cycle. Implementing security as an integral part of this cycle allows you to mitigate risk and reduce the number of vulnerabilities across the dynamic and complex attack surface containers present.
