Description |
---|
The execution of images within the container platform runtime must implement organizational defined security safeguards to prevent distributed denial-of-service (DDOS) and other possible attacks against the container image at runtime. Security safeguards employed to protect memory and CPU include, for example, data execution prevention and address space layout randomization. Data execution prevention safeguards can be software-enforced. Other means of protection are to limit memory and CPU resources to a container. |
