Containers boost speed and scale, but they also introduce risks that are too often overlooked. In this 20-minute session, we’ll challenge the biggest myths surrounding container security and show why simply containerizing your applications does not make them safe.
We explore:
- The Illusion of Safety: Today’s top misconceptions and assumptions when building and deploying applications using containers.
- The Trouble with Public Registries: How Docker Hub and other registries have become hotspots for typosquatting, malware injection, and unverified images that slip into production.
- The Hidden Danger of Public Packages: How attackers exploit open-source ecosystems through dependency confusion, malicious maintainers, and transitive dependencies that quietly compromise your containers.
The session wraps with practical techniques for securing containers to help your teams build and deploy with confidence.
