Network Security
The Riddle of the Sands and Network Sandboxing
A cautious expedition through isolation, egress, and suspicious traffic
Excellent on the precise moment when a harmless development container begins behaving like a foreign power.
Childers reimagines the invasion-scare thriller as a sober handbook for containing services before they discover the wider internet. From network namespaces and egress allow-lists to service isolation, policy enforcement, and packet inspection, this book maps the shifting channels between useful connectivity and avoidable catastrophe.
