With more enterprises looking to make the switch from experimenting with containers to deploying them in production, container security looks set to become the next big talking point in the container landscape over the next few years.
A 2017 Cloud Foundry survey revealed that 25 percent of enterprises currently use containers in production, but as enterprises become more familiar with the technology, this figure will almost certainly rise over the coming months and years.
The appeal of containers is how they provide a way to quickly package applications with everything they need to run, providing consistency between development, testing, and production. Containers reduce conflict between developers, testers, and sysadmins, leading to agile software development.
