Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to security settings for containers. The method may include tracing, using a trace tool, system calls made by an application to determine a system call that is necessary for the application to operate, wherein the system call corresponds to a minimum level of security for the application. The method may also include embedding, based on the system call, a custom security setting into a container image corresponding to the application.

Abstract: A containerized service can be managed using a system manager and a deployment engine. The system manager can receive a service identifier that can identify a configuration file of the containerized service. The configuration file can be used to initiate one or more containers to run the containerized service. The system manager can transmit the configuration file to the deployment engine integrated with the system manager. The deployment engine can create a service container prior to initiating the one or more containers that can run the containerized service based on a container status of the service container. The service container can be used to manage the one or more containers. The system manager can initiate the containerized service in response to receiving a ready notification from the deployment engine indicating an operational status of the one or more containers.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to specifying security settings for containers and extracting and applying such security settings from container images provided by e.g., developers or vendors of an application. More specifically, a developer of an application may determine a minimum level of security that is necessary for the application to operate and generate custom security settings based on the determined minimum level of security. The custom security settings may be embedded into a container image corresponding to the application. A user of the application may retrieve the container image and extract the custom security settings and compare them to default security settings. In response to determining that the custom security settings are a subset of the default security settings, the custom security settings may be applied to a container that is run based on the container image.
