An XCCDF Rule
Description
Verify that the /etc/default/docker file ownership and group-ownership is correctly set to root. /etc/default/docker file contains sensitive parameters that may alter the behavior of docker daemon. Hence, it should be owned and group-owned by root to maintain the integrity of the file. This file may not be present on the system. In that case, this recommendation is not applicable.
