There was a recent post about whether to enable ufw and it made me ask: how protected I am from a rogue docker container? I have a single server with 15-20 docker containers running at any given time. Should one get hacked or be malicious from the get go, are there (hopefully easy to implement for an armchair sysadmin) best practices to mitigate such an event? Thanks!

    Run a server with SELinux enabled, and use Podman instead of docker (Podman I assume has better selinux support)

      Never heard of podman but what I read on google is that its a drop in replacement for docker. Even read you can alias podman for docker. So does that mean we can just use docker images and docker compose files with podman? Are there drawbacks for using podman instead of docker?
