Some opinions claim that “Benchmarks are meaningless”, “benchmarks are irrelevant” or “benchmarks are nothing like your real applications” However for others “Benchmarks matter,” as they “account for the processing architecture and speed, memory, storage subsystems and the database engine.”

Many good security tools provide that function, and benchmarks from the Center for Internet Security (CIS) are clear and prescriptive. In fact, in our recent CISO research, 28% of CISOs told us that application teams sometimes bypass these types of tests to speed up delivery. Why is container security tricky? Remove privileges.
