encrypted docker images #1286

Open publicocean0 opened 3 years ago

publicocean0 commented 3 years ago

Possibility to encrypt docker image and decrypt just when is started the container asking the passphrase. The idea is the possibility to sell docker images as a "software as service" , not permitting to who buys the docker image to see inside the image. Conceptually are necesary 2 passphrases: 1 registered inside docker server by seller (not visible to machine owner and buyer) and 1 given to buyer for starting the container. In this way just docker server can decrypt image when buyer wants , no other software will be able to decrypt it, no other person can use the image except the buyer in the specific docker machine or docker swarm cluster.

You are probably better off leaving this kind of feature request on our general roadmap repo https://github.com/docker/roadmap/issues

@publicocean0 Perhaps "in the interim of your feature request being implemented", you could take a look at how other software attempts to protect its contents and/or license.
