Security considerations for container resilience

Security is a critical aspect that can significantly impact the resilience of containerized applications. In the containerized world, security vulnerabilities or misconfigurations can lead to various issues, such as data breaches, service disruptions, and system compromises. These security concerns can directly affect the availability, reliability, and overall resilience of your containerized applications. Therefore, it’s essential to adopt robust security practices to ensure the resilience of your container-based infrastructure. The first security layer is offered by AWS core infrastructure with VPCs, subnets, and security groups to provide a natural boundary between container services. Next, we’ll look at some additional considerations for improving the security for containers.
