Scott Gallagher has been fascinated with technology since he was in elementary school, when he used to play Oregon Trail. His love continued through middle school, working on more Apple IIe computers. In high school, he learned how build computers and program in BASIC! His college years were all about server technologies such as Novell, Microsoft, and Red Hat. After college, he continued to work on Novell, all while keeping an interest in all the technologies. He then moved into managing Microsoft environments and eventually into what he is the most passionate about, Linux environments, and now his focus is on Docker and cloud environments.
I would like to thank my family for the support they have given me, not only throughout the work on this book, but throughout my life and career. I would like to thank my wife, who is my soulmate, the love of my life, and the most important person in my life and the reason I push myself to be the best I can be each day. I would also like to thank my kids, who are the most amazing kids in this world, for being able to watch them grow each day; I truly am blessed. Finally, I would like to thank my parents, who have helped me become the person I am today.
Harald Albers works as a Java developer and security engineer in Hamburg, Germany.
In addition to developing distributed web applications, he also sets up and maintains the build infrastructure, staging, and production environments for these applications.
Most of his work is only possible because of Docker's simple and elegant solutions for the challenges of provisioning, deployment, and orchestration.
He started using Docker and contributing to the Docker project in mid-2014. He is a member of the Docker Governance Advisory Board, 2015-2016.

Docker is the hottest buzzword in technology these days! This book helps you to ensure that you are securing all the pieces in the Docker ecosystems of tools. Keeping your data and systems safe is of utmost importance these days, and with Docker, it's the same exception. Learn how Docker is inherently secure and how to secure the pieces around it even more and be on the lookout for potential vulnerabilities as they take place.
, Securing Docker Hosts , starts off the book by discussing how to secure the first part of getting your Docker environment up and running, and that is by focusing on your Docker hosts. The Docker hosts are the platform that your containers will run on. Without securing these first, it's like leaving the front door to your house wide open.
, Securing Docker Components, focuses on securing the components of Docker, such as the registry you can use, the containers that run on your hosts, and how to sign your images.
, Securing and Hardening Linux Kernels, explains hardening guides that are out there as well as different security measures/methods you can use to help secure the kernel that is being used to run your containers as it's important to secure it.
, Docker Bench for Security, informs how well you have set up your Docker environment with the Docker Bench Security application, get recommendations for where you should focus your efforts to fix right away, and what you don't really have to fix right now, but should keep yourself aware of.
, Monitoring and Reporting Docker Security Incidents, covers how to stay on top of the items that Docker has released regarding the security findings to help keep you aware of your environments. Also, we will take a look at how to safely report any security findings you come across to ensure that Docker has a chance to alleviate the concern before it becomes public and widespread.
, Using Docker's Built-in Security Features, introduces the use of Docker tools to help secure your environment. We will go over all of them to give you a baseline of what you can use that is provided by Docker itself. You can learn what command-line and GUI tools you can use for your security needs.
, Securing Docker with Third-party Tools , covers the third-party tools that are out there to help you keep your Docker environment secure. You will learn about command line, but we'll focus on third-party tools. We will take a look at traffic authorization, summon, and sVirt with SELinux.
, Keeping up on Security , explains the means that you can use to keep up to date with Docker-related security issues that are out there for the version of the Docker tools you might be running now, how to stay ahead of any security issues, and keep your environments secure even with threats out there.
