About

Company details for Docker

Docker Sandboxes runs AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Gemini and Kiro in isolated microVMs, either on the developer's machine or on Docker-managed cloud compute. Docker AI Governance sets network, filesystem and MCP policy centrally and logs each policy decision. Docker Hardened Images provide minimal container images with signed SBOMs and build provenance, and Docker Desktop and Docker Hub form the container development platform. It ranks #7 of 45 in CI/CD on SlateIndex and has a visibility score of 17.2 in the latest weekly run.

Founded in 2013 and headquartered in San Francisco, California, United States, the company employs 501–1,000 people. Its differentiator: each agent runs in its own microVM with its own kernel and a private Docker Engine, with credentials injected at the network boundary.
