+ ## Security
25
+
26
+ The Docker MCP Toolkit combines passive and active measures to reduce attack
27
+ surfaces and ensure safe runtime behavior.
28
+
29
+ ### Passive security
30
+
31
+ - Image signing and attestation: All MCP server images under ` mcp/ ` in the [ catalog] ( catalog.md )
32
+ are built by Docker and digitally
33
+ signed to verify their source and integrity. Each image includes a Software
34
+ Bill of Materials (SBOM) for full transparency.
35
+
36
+ ### Active security
37
+
38
+ Security at runtime is enforced through resource and access limitations:
39
+
40
+ - CPU allocation: MCP tools are run in their own container. They are
41
+ restricted to 1 CPU, limiting the impact of potential misuse of computing
42
+ resources.
43
+
44
+ - Memory allocation: Containers for MCP tools are limited to 2 Gb.
45
+
46
+ - Filesystem access: By default, MCP Servers have no access to the host filesystem.
47
+ The user explicitly selects the servers that will be granted file mounts.
48
+
49
+ - Interception of tool requests: Requests to and from tools that contain sensitive
50
+ information such as secrets are blocked.
