Title: Day 13/25: Production-Ready Security: Running Containers as Non-Root (Principle of Least…

1. 1Create a new user and group in your Dockerfile using the USER instruction
2. 2Configure the permissions of the new user to limit access to sensitive resources
3. 3Run your containerized application as the new non-root user
4. 4Test and verify that the application works as expected with the new user
5. 5Implement this security practice in your CI/CD pipeline to ensure consistency across all deployments

DevOps and security teams can benefit from this knowledge to ensure the security of their containerized applications

💡 Running containers as non-root users reduces the attack surface and prevents privilege escalation attacks

🚨 Secure your containers by running them as non-root users! 🚨 Follow the principle of least privilege to reduce attack surfaces #DevOps #Security
