Chris Foster is Linux fan, gamer, computing enthusiast and general purpose geek. Over his 15+ years in software, he has designed, planned, engineered, tested, secured, and ran distributed and web-based systems in the data center and in the cloud. He draws on his experience as a full-stack developer to craft innovative solutions for cloud problems, with a particular focus on running secure and compliant container-based services.

Even as serverless technologies continue to improve, containers remain wildly popular for many applications. The reigning champion in this realm: Docker. But how can Docker containers run securely, regardless of cloud platform or run-time environment?

In Part 1 of this series we'll explore the fundamentals of a secure Docker container: - Brief intro to Docker - Security starts at the top - DROPCAPs, cgroups, and immutability- oh my! - Strategies for a secure foundation
