Container Security Scanning: A Practical Guide
What a container security scan checks for, where it fits in your pipeline, and how to turn a wall of image CVEs into a short list of things worth fixing.
Deep dives, practical guides, and incident analyses from engineers who build Safeguard. No fluff, no vendor FUD — just what you need to ship secure software.

Falco's 0.40 release line makes modern eBPF (CO-RE) the default driver, deprecates the legacy probe and gVisor engine, and changes how operators ship Falco. Here's what changed and what to test.

Container security best practices come down to a small set of high-leverage habits: minimal images, non-root users, scanned dependencies, and least-privilege runtime. Here is the working list.
Kubernetes security spans four layers — cloud, cluster, container, code — and misconfiguration, not novel exploits, causes most real-world incidents.
Veracode and Snyk both cover SAST and SCA, but they come from opposite starting points — Veracode from centralized, policy-driven enterprise scanning, Snyk from developer-first IDE and git integration.
Trusted Publishing made PyPI safer, but leaked short-lived OIDC tokens in CI logs kicked off a credential-replay campaign that PyPI, GitHub, and Sonatype all tracked in 2025.
Docker and containers share the host kernel, so their security model is different from virtual machines. Here is how to build, run, and scan containers safely.
