Building freely distributed containers with open tools

By Tom Sweeney GitHub

Scott McCarty (@fatherlinux) has an amazing video on YouTube about Building freely distributed containers with open tools. As only Scott could say "Although explaining how to ride a Tron-style light cycle is beyond the scope of this tutorial, we will discuss something almost as exhilarating—building containers with #Podman and #RedHat Universal Base Image (UBI). We will cover how to build and run #containers based on #UBI using just your regular user account—no daemon, no root (rootless), no fuss. Finally, we will order the deresolution of all of our containers with a really cool command. You probably won’t be promoted to CEO of ENCOM after this talk, but you will have new tools in your toolbelt for how to find, run, build, and share container images."

Generate SECCOMP Profiles for Containers Using Podman and eBPF

By Valentin Rothberg GitHub

Containers run everywhere. They run in the cloud, they run on IoT devices, they run in small and in big companies and wherever they run, we want them to run as securely as possible. In this article, I describe the Google Summer of Code project that Divyansh Kamboj, Dan Walsh and I have been working on and how we improved the state of the art in securing containers, and how you can try it out.
