Think of containers as the packaging for microservices that separate the content from its environment – the underlying operating system and infrastructure. This opens the door to auto-scalable applications, which effortlessly matches the demands of rapidly growing and varying user traffic. What is Docker? Networking.

For example, an organization might use security analytics tools to monitor user behavior and network traffic. Teams can then act before attackers have the chance to compromise key data or bring down critical systems. This data helps teams see where attacks began, which systems were targeted, and what techniques attackers used.
