The Yard at Orchard Apps: a crane over a stack of eight shipping containers — apps in boxes, the yard, what's inside, where from, going stale, no secrets, shared kitchen and minding the yard — with the last box being lifted into place. To the right, the road every box travels from build to scan to registry to run, and Isla's card of six questions asked before anything ships: what's inside (214 packages, scanned), where it came from, whether it is still fresh, whether any secrets ride in it, whether it runs with least privilege, and whether it went through the pipeline.

Container Security — Apps in Boxes, Shipped Safe

A friendly first course on how modern software ships — apps packed into containers — and the six questions that keep the boxes trustworthy: what's in it, where's it from, how fresh, any secrets, how much power, and did it take the road.

What you'll learn

Explain containers, images, and the yard's road — build, shelve, run — in plain words, and know why an orchestrator is a manager, not an inspector.
Read scan reports calmly (inheritance from bases, severity ordering, the boring fresh-parts-and-rebuild fix) and apply the source rule: official and verified shelves, names checked letter by letter, everything unusual routed.
Keep boxes fresh by rhythm and never let secrets ride: store-kept, run-time delivered, pointers not values, and report-and-rotate in minutes when one slips.
Ship least-privilege boxes on shared ground — non-root, minimal, fenced, defended asks — and mind the yard together: strengthen the gates, ask the platform team early, and teach the six-question card forward.
