I'll agree that "Docker" has a history of "interesting" security practices.

But the core technologies underlying containers: Namespaces, cgroups, POSIX Capabilties, and SELinux. "Should" provide a level of isolation equivalent to a virtual machine[1].

If you're using a decent container platform like Podman, you should feel relatively good about the application's security and isolation.
