Hardening Container Runtimes: AppArmor Profiles for Podman and Docker

While container runtimes provide foundational security, most deployments miss a crucial defense layer: kernel-enforced access control. AppArmor addresses this gap by enabling fine-grained, path-based restrictions that dramatically limit the blast radius of container compromises. For teams running Podman or Docker on Linux, implementing AppArmor profiles represents a practical, immediate step toward hardened production deployments.
