Docker brought together enterprise security leaders to tackle agentic AI's biggest challenge: how to govern AI agents without slowing developers down. Here's what they said.

In this edition of From the Captain’s Chair, we’re interviewing Mohammad-Ali A'râbi, author, public speaker, and software engineer.

Learn what AI agents are, how they work, and what it takes to build and run them safely in production.

Discover why Docker is co-hosting WeAreDevelopers World Congress North America and how AI agents are transforming software development and developer communities.

We spent the week at AI Engineer World's Fair in San Francisco, on stage and on the floor. Here's what we heard, and where we think it lands for anyone building with agents.

AI agents are changing software development. Learn why your laptop is becoming the new production environment and why runtime governance matters.

Learn why AI agent isolation matters, how Docker SBX enables safer AI workflows, and how Sandbox Kits help. Written by Docker Captain Karan Verma.

Learn what EU AI Act compliance requires at each risk tier, key deadlines through 2027, and how engineering teams can operationalize AI governance.

Learn when, where, and how to generate SBOMs for container images. Covers build-time vs. post-build approaches, quality criteria, and CI/CD integration.

Learn what the EU Cyber Resilience Act requires, including SBOM mandates, vulnerability reporting, and compliance deadlines for container teams.

In Omdia's 2026 software supply chain security report, 73% of organizations that generate SBOMs say they enable more efficient vulnerability mitigation, yet 86% still find the generation process challenging. That gap between recognized value and operational difficulty is where most teams are stuck. ...

In Part 1, we walked through six categories of AI coding agent failures and why they keep happening. The agent runs as you, with your filesystem permissions and your credentials, and nothing sits between the model's decision and the shell's execution. In Part 2, we looked at one specific version of ...

TLDR: Docker Content Trust (DCT) and the Notary v1 service at notary.docker.io are being fully retired (first announced in July of 2025). This blog explains what is changing, who is affected, and how to move to modern alternatives.  Ten years ago, Docker Content Trust (DCT) gave the container ecosys...

The obvious takeaway from 2026's biggest incidents is that attackers are increasingly using AI to move fast. Docker's CISO, Mark Lechner, wrote about this shift and what every engineering team should do now. What worries us is that the bar is about to drop further. For most of the last decade, findi...

Aikido now scans Docker Hardened Images (DHI) with built-in VEX support. Vulnerabilities that Docker has verified as non-exploitable drop out of the queue automatically, so developers spend their time on findings that actually matter. This post walks through what changed, why it matters, and how use...

Understanding software supply chain security is one thing. Putting it into practice across a real pipeline, with real deadlines and real constraints, is another. Most organizations recognize that their software supply chain is a growing attack surface, but translating that awareness into concrete, r...

AI agents are moving fast. According to our State of Agentic AI report, 60% of organizations already have AI agents in production, yet 40% cite security and compliance as the number-one barrier to scaling them further. And that gap between adoption and oversight is exactly where AI governance lives....

When security teams scan their container environments for the first time, they often discover hundreds of known vulnerabilities, and almost none of them trace back to application code. The overwhelming majority come from packages that shipped with the base image: shells, compilers, debug utilities, ...

Software supply chain attacks have accelerated faster than most security teams anticipated. Sonatype's 2026 State of the Software Supply Chain report identified more than 454,000 new malicious packages published to open source repositories in 2025, bringing the cumulative total to over 1.2 million s...

In our State of Agentic AI report, 45% of organizations said they struggle to ensure the tools their agents use are secure and enterprise-ready. That number reflects a broader reality: AI agents are moving into production faster than the security practices around them are maturing. The challenge is ...

If you're already familiar with sandboxing as an isolation technique, sandbox security is the next layer: the policies, controls, and enforcement mechanisms that make sure those isolation boundaries actually hold under real-world pressure. According to our State of Agentic AI report, 40% of responde...

This is Part 2 of our AI Coding Agent Horror Stories series, an in-depth look at real-world security incidents exposing the vulnerabilities in AI coding agents, and how Docker Sandboxes deliver workspace-scoped isolation that contains the worst failures at the execution layer. In part 1 of this seri...

CVE-2026-31431 is a Linux kernel vulnerability that was recently disclosed. This CVE does not compromise Docker infrastructure. That said, Docker Engine's default profiles prior to v29.4.3 allowed containers to create AF_ALG sockets, which is the syscall surface the exploit uses. You are not exposed...

Earlier this year I mass-migrated my blog to Astro using Claude Code. 146 posts. 6,024 images. Canonical URLs, JSON-LD markup, sitemap generation, the whole stack. I'd spent hours writing a skills file to teach the agent about my blog's architecture, how deployment worked, what not to touch. And it ...

Gordon understands your environment, proposes fixes, and takes action across your entire Docker workflow. Now generally available. Image 1: Gordon in Docker Desktop Why Gordon Exists  Developers are more productive than ever. AI coding assistants are writing code, merging PRs and cutting review cycl...

This is issue 1 of a new series called Coding Agent Horror Stories where we examine critical security failures in the AI coding agent ecosystem and how Docker Sandboxes provide enterprise-grade protection against these threats. AI coding agents are everywhere. According to Anthropic's 2026 Agentic C...

We’re excited to announce the general availability of Custom Catalogs and Profiles for managing Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. These two complementary capabilities fundamentally change how teams package, distribute, and manage AI tooling.  Custom MCP Catalogs let organizations curate and dist...

On April 15, NIST announced a prioritized enrichment model for the National Vulnerability Database. Most CVEs will still be published, but fewer will receive the CVSS scores, CPE mappings, and CWE classifications that container scanners and compliance programs have historically relied on. The change...

Introducing Docker AI Governance: centralized control over how agents execute, what they can reach on the network, which credentials they can use, and which MCP tools they can call, so every developer in your company can run AI agents safely, wherever they work. Your laptop is the new prod Agents ar...

Whether you are a software engineer, a product manager, or a designer, this quote should fundamentally change how we approach our daily routine. We are no longer just building interfaces; we are creating environments where agents can operate autonomously with minimal human interaction. What could be...
