Terms and conditions apply.
Challenge
Getting Started in the Lab Environment
Here are the initial instructions and explanation of the lab environment. Read this while your environment is busy creating itself from nothing. Yes, this violates physics; we know. How fun!
Challenge
Perform Initial Security Tests
Running Docker containers by default is not secure. In this challenge, you will understand how to demonstrate the lack of security and run a security audit.
Challenge
Implement Docker Container Security
Docker by default is not secure. You will create a non root user, test access to files, and prevent privilege escalation.
Challenge
Secure Docker Container Deployments
With multiple containers running on the same host, DoS attacks are a real problem. In this challenge, you will limit container resources to preserve Docker host resources.
Provided environment for hands-on practice
We will provide the credentials and environment necessary for you to practice right within your browser.
