Container Isolation at Scale (Introducing gVisor) - Dawn Chen & Zhengyu He, Google (Intermediate Skill Level)

Containers are the modern way of running your services at scale because of the portability and lightweightness. However, due to the fact that they depend on OS multi-tenancy as they share the same host OS (usually Linux which represents a large attack surface), containers are considered providing weaker isolation than virtual machines. We will start from discussing the security principles in running services in Google, and then summarize a list of best practices we have explored for preventing, auditing and mitigating security threats. Specifically, we will focus on the challenges we have faced at the host operating system level.
