To properly offer services to the user and to orchestrate containers, the container platform may offer services that use ports and protocols that best fit those services. The container platform, when offering the services, must only offer the services on ports and protocols authorized by the DoD. To validate that the services are using only the approved ports and protocols, the organization must perform a periodic scan/review of the container platform and disable functions, ports, protocols, and services deemed to be unneeded or non-secure.
