Summary
In this chapter, we understood containerization and explored its benefits in the context of CSPM by explaining the concept of containerization, which involves encapsulating an application and its dependencies into a portable and isolated unit called a container. We also discussed unique container security challenges, onboarding containers to CSPM tools, particularly in the context of Microsoft Defender for Cloud, and challenges that may arise in the onboarding process. We also delved into security best practices for containers and the most recent trends and advancements in container security in the context of CSPM.
In the next chapter, we will discuss CSPM tool environment settings and integration with other IT tools.
