5 Container Security Trends to Watch Out For in the Near Future

Written by Miguelito Balba
October 10, 2022

In the next few years, we will see a continued increase in the use of containers for various applications. This is due to containers' many benefits, such as portability, flexibility, and efficiency. As a result, we expect more companies to adopt container security solutions to protect their data and applications. Here are some of the trends that we can expect to see in container security in the next few years:

1. More companies will adopt container security solutions

As more companies adopt containers, there will be an increased demand for container security solutions. This is because containers offer a higher level of portability and flexibility than traditional virtualization technologies, making them more challenging to secure. However, several vendors provide container security solutions – and we take pride in Carbonetes being one of those that offer the utmost container security program for all kinds of business ventures.

2. Increased focus on runtime security

Runtime security is a critical component of container security. This is because containers can be run on any platform, making it challenging to enforce host-based security controls. As a result, we can expect to see an increased focus on runtime security, such as application safelisting and image scanning.

3. Greater integration of container security solutions

We can also expect more significant integration of container security solutions with other security tools, such as vulnerability management and intrusion detection/prevention systems. This will help to provide a more comprehensive security solution for companies that use containers.

4. More sophisticated attacks

As containers become more widely used, we can expect more sophisticated attacks targeting them. This is because attackers will be able to take advantage of the portability and flexibility of containers to launch attacks that are difficult to detect and defend against.

5. Continued evolution of container security solutions

As the threats to containers evolve, we can expect to continue developing new and innovative container security solutions. This is necessary to keep up with the ever-changing landscape of container security. There you have it, five trends in container security we can expect in the next few years. Companies that use containers need to be aware of these trends and take steps to protect their data and applications accordingly.
