Best practices when working with Docker images
Shipshape
Conclusions
I have presented just a few of the best practices you might want to consider when working with Docker images and containers. If they seem too complicated, at least stick to vulnerability scans – these are mandatory in all scenarios. Don't think that because you are not using full systems like virtual machines you are safe: Hackers are increasingly attacking container infrastructure, including Kubernetes. Making sure your images don't contain any malicious code or grave vulnerabilities is an important part of keeping your setup secure.
