Certbot Overview
Secure your stack with a hardened Certbot image freshly-built by Minimus. Minimus images always include the most up-to-date package version for all packages and dependencies contained in the image.
Certbot is a free, open-source client that automates the process of obtaining and renewing SSL/TLS certificates from the Let's Encrypt certificate authority. It handles certificate installation, configuration of your web server, and automatic renewal to keep your HTTPS encryption current. Certbot supports multiple web servers and can operate in fully automated or interactive modes.
Technical Considerations
The Certbot image provided by Minimus is a slim, security-hardened alternative to the public image from Docker Hub. The images are largely interchangeable, with a few differences as noted below.
Certbot built by Minimus:
- Drill down on the version specification tab to see the default user, listening ports, entrypoint, volumes, environment variables, etc.
The Payoff
A hardened, minimal image that will remain more secure for the long run and accrue vulnerabilities at a slower rate.
- See the risk reduction dashboard for a detailed CVE comparison over the past 30 days.
- Review the compliance report to see the default hardening and security configurations for the image.
