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!

    This. On RHEL (or Fedora or CentOS Stream) containers are confined by the container_t domain and SELinux policy prevents them from interfering with host resources. In addition each container runs with a unique set of MCS labels, which stops a rogue container from interfering with other containers.
