Least privilege access and need to know must be required to access the container platform runtime.

Description

The container platform runtime is used to instantiate containers. If this process is accessed by those persons who are not authorized, those containers offering services can be brought to a denial of service (DoS) situation, disabling a large number of services with a small change to the container platform. To limit this threat, it is important to limit access to the runtime to only those individuals with runtime duties.
