A security engineer Identifies a vulnerability m a containerized application.

Adding the "USER myappuser" instruction to the Dockerfile is the best solution to prevent similar exploits by privileged processes. This instruction ensures that the container runs as a non-privileged user instead of the root user, significantly reducing the risk of privileged exploits. Running containers with least privilege principles minimizes the potential impact of vulnerabilities, enhancing the overall security posture of the containerized environment.

The CompTIA Cloud+ framework includes security concerns, measures, and concepts for cloud operations, highlighting the importance of container security practices, such as running containers as non-root users to prevent unauthorized access and exploitation.
