For those attending SAINTCON 2016 come learn about container security. While containers provides tremendous benefits for IT and Application developers but brings new challenges to IT Security. We will present the new challenges the highly dynamic world of containers brings to IT Security and how to ensure containers can be agentlessly secured and monitored using Symantec Data Center Security. They key use cases we will review are:
Visibility of Docker hosts and their containers including metadata and operational status (online/offline).
Real-time security and compliance monitoring of the Docker host and it's containers.
Ensure critical files and services specified in the CIS Docker Benchmark are being monitored.
Preventing container escape via known or unknown exploits and backdoors.
Integrating security into devops and the container management process
