Today we're introducing Cloud Sandboxes: same microVM isolation as Docker Sandboxes on your laptop, same CLI, always-on Docker-managed compute.
Close your laptop. Keep the agent running. Move between local and cloud with one command. $250 credit for new accounts: docker.com/sbx-promo

The isolation question for AI agents is getting more specific. Not 'is it sandboxed?' but 'what exactly does the boundary hold, and what can get past it?'
Sandbox Review on how to answer that, and what major coding agents are actually doing about isolation in production today: bit.ly/4ytvvWm

An agent that breaks something isn't broken. It's doing exactly what it was built to do, just not what you intended.
Docker’s Eric Jia and @srinisekaran on the five main agent security risks, why traditional app security wasn't built for them, and the incidents behind each one: bit.ly/4jnAdBj

The 2026 Stack Overflow survey is out. We’re honored Docker remains the most used and most desired cloud dev tool.
It also shows trust is the biggest gap in the agentic era: just 7% of developers trust AI for important work decisions. Docker CMO Terri Avnaim on extending trust to sandboxes: bit.ly/4dHQD3K

Agents that can edit files and run commands can also game their own evals.
Harbor + Docker Sandboxes fix that: every eval task runs in an isolated microVM, with network policies for fair, reproducible runs.

Too much Python boilerplate to get an agent running?
@BetterStackHQ covered how to use Docker Agent to simplify it: one YAML file, one command, agents talking to each other with nothing more than a URL. Real debugging demo and a battleship match to finish.

We’re happy to be partnering with @chainloop_dev on their kit for Docker Sandboxes. 🤝
Docker secures where agents run. Chainloop governs what they ship.

Don’t babysit your agents. Put them in sandboxes. Each sandbox is a microVM with its own kernel. And now they run in the cloud, too.

Two events, two cities, one very eventful week.
Devoxx Belgium + World Summit AI Amsterdam: packed rooms, great questions, plenty of conversations around AI agents, security and governance - and yes,an AI agent on the loose at our booth.
Thank you to everyone who made the week such a good one.

Agents are building software. Who's securing the factory?
Agent Baseline participants publish a reference architecture for securing agentic software factories, with controls enforced by the environment, not the agent.

An agent that breaks your laptop is annoying. One that breaks production comes with a postmortem.

Sandbox Royale was one of the highlights at @WeAreDevs.
Day 1 winner: filed lawsuits against everyone. Day 2 winner: "dependable, warm, chaotic, with risk taking characteristics," teaming up with as many agents as possible. We love seeing the creativity that went into the strategies.
Congratulations Sam and Bita!

"Docker's new sandboxes aim to contain AI agents for real?"
The Register’s headline gets straight to it: an agent trying to escape, what happened when it ran inside a Docker Sandbox instead, and what it means that containment is now extending to the cloud.

Every agent has its own set of rails. If one updates, your security posture can change without your review.
You need a layer below all of them. Join Docker's John Craft & @srinisekaran on Oct 12 for a 30-min live webinar and demo on going below the harness.
