Docker Workloads Escape
Conventional Backup

Critical data in Docker environments lives in volumes, bind mounts, database containers, Compose files, and locally built images. Server backups don’t see these parts, and they don’t see what’s going wrong inside them either: restart loops, vulnerable images, suspicious processes, ransomware activity. Trinity understands Docker natively and brings protection and detection together in one place.

Gap 01

The Data Lives Where File Backups Can’t See

Named volumes, bind mounts, database containers, Compose files, and locally built images hold the application state that matters. A conventional server backup captures the host and misses the workload.

Gap 02

The Problems Hide Inside the Containers

Restart loops, containers running as root, critical CVEs in images, suspicious processes, and malicious connections are all invisible to backup tooling. By the time a customer notices, the problem has been running for days.

Gap 03

The Backups Themselves Are Now Targets

Modern ransomware goes after recovery data first, deleting or encrypting backups before touching production. Recovery points that an attacker with admin credentials can erase are recovery points you don’t actually have.

Core Capabilities

Complete Cyber Resilience
for Docker

Docker environments combine persistent data, databases, container configurations, images, and host resources. Trinity brings their protection and security monitoring into one operational view.

Docker-Aware Backup

Protect named volumes, eligible bind-mounted directories, Docker Compose files, container configurations, custom networks, and selected local images. Trinity also creates application-consistent dumps for supported PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, and MongoDB containers, with a preview of size and contents before any on-demand backup runs.

Immutable Recovery Points

S3-compatible Object Lock prevents protected backups from being deleted or overwritten until their configured lock period expires, even if administrative credentials are compromised. No one can alter them, and that includes ransomware and administrators alike.

Controlled Restoration

Download recovery points or restore them directly through Trinity. Choose all or selected volumes, include protected host directories, and optionally stop and restart affected containers during recovery. Checksums validate every restore.

Health & Operational Monitoring

See CPU, memory, disk usage, container health, restarts, volume growth, Docker versions, collector status, and full backup history from a single host view. Hosts check in about every minute with health and security telemetry.

Threat & Vulnerability Detection

Identify critical CVEs in images with fix guidance, containers running as root, privileged workloads, suspicious processes, malicious network connections, SSH attacks, and application errors before your customers notice them.

Guided Remediation

Alerts arrive with AI-assisted summaries, likely causes, recommended actions, and a remediation plan: stop a compromised container, block a malicious IP, pause and preserve. Nothing runs without administrator approval, and every action is logged.

Under Trinity’s Protection

These are real views from the Trinity console: a Docker host with backups running, alerts firing, and health telemetry streaming in. Everything on this page lives one click apart.

Backup & Restore

Every Recovery Point, Verified and Visible

Recent backups show status, duration, size, and storage path at a glance, with live progress bars for running jobs. Restore history sits right alongside, including verification results, so you can prove a recovery point actually restores and not just that it exists. Below it, the full container inventory tracks image age, root usage, CVE counts, HTTP errors, uptime, and resource consumption per container.

Threat Detection & Response

Alerts That Arrive with Analysis

Restart loops, container errors, aging images, containers running as root, HTTP error spikes, rapid volume growth, and critical CVEs surface as prioritized alerts, each with AI analysis attached. When remediation is approved, you can watch it run from the same list. Warnings and criticals are separated so your team works the right problem first.

Health Monitoring

One View per Host

CPU, memory, and disk usage for the host and for Docker specifically, container counts, load averages with trend, Docker and collector versions, and the last backup, all on a single screen that refreshes as the host checks in. When a backup is in progress, you see it here too.

How It Works

Up and Running
in Three Steps

One lightweight collector per host handles backup, monitoring, and remediation, and keeps itself updated. From enrollment to first protected backup takes minutes, not a migration project.

1

Enroll the Host

Select the customer, name the host, and configure the backup policy, retention, and immutability in the Trinity console.

2

Install the Collector

Paste the generated installation command on the Docker host. The lightweight collector registers securely, starts as a service, and begins checking in.

3

Protect and Monitor

Run backups on demand or schedule them every 6 hours, 12 hours, daily, or weekly. Trinity continuously reports health, security, and recovery status from then on.

Built for Service Providers

One Platform for
Every Customer

Trinity is designed for multi-tenant operations from the ground up. Manage Docker hosts across your entire customer base while keeping each customer’s hosts, alerts, policies, and recovery data strictly tenant-scoped.

Tenant-Scoped by Design

Your team operates every customer’s Docker hosts from one console, and each customer’s world stays its own. Isolation holds at every layer, from enrollment through restore.

  • Hosts, alerts, and backup policies stay scoped to each customer’s tenant
  • Recovery data is isolated tenant to tenant, with per-customer retention and immutability
  • Restores, deletions, and remediation always require admin privileges
  • One centralized view surfaces what needs attention across the whole fleet

Resilience by Design

Built to Be Trusted
on the Worst Day

Backup software only earns its keep when everything else has gone wrong. Trinity is engineered so that what you see in the console is what you can actually recover, without disrupting production along the way.

Engineering Safeguards
  • Encrypted S3-compatible object storage with time-limited signed transfer links
  • Every recovery point carries a manifest and checksums, verified on restore
  • Sensitive environment values are redacted before data leaves the host
  • Multipart uploads with automatic retry and progress reporting
  • Disk-space safeguards before any backup job starts
  • Reduced resource priority so production workloads come first
  • Automatic retry for interrupted backup and restore jobs; overdue backups raise alerts
  • Optional email notifications for failed or degraded backups and restores
  • Automatic collector updates when hosts are idle
  • Compliance-mode immutability that no credential compromise can bypass
Honest by design: a backup that skipped items shows as degraded, never as a success. Reporting you can trust is part of the product.
Requirements
  • Linux AMD64 with Docker Engine and systemd
  • Root or sudo privileges to install the collector
  • Outbound HTTPS to Trinity and object storage
  • Restores, deletions, and remediation always require admin privileges
Trinity Platform

Docker Protection Is One Pillar of a Larger Platform

Docker Backup and Restore runs on the same Trinity Platform that unifies prevention, detection, and recovery across your entire environment. The same console, the same collector model, and the same accountable team extend to the rest of your infrastructure as your protection needs grow.
