# Check Docker hardening configurations

Check your Docker hardening configurations on an engine by running the **`!DockerHardeningCheck`** command in the Case/Issue War Room CLI. The results show the following:

* Non-root User
* Memory
* File descriptors
* CPUs
* PIDs

Before running the command, ensure that your engine is up and running.

1. Update the **`DockerHardeningCheck`** script to run on the engine.
   1. Go to Investigation & Response → Automation → Scripts → DockerHardeningCheck → Settings.
   2. In the Run on field select Single engine and from the list, select the engine you want to run the script.
   3. Save the script.
2. Verify the Docker container has been hardened according to recommended settings. In the Case/Issue War Room CLI, run the **`!DockerHardeningCheck`** command.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/cortex-agentix/configure-cortex-agentix/engines/docker/docker-hardening-guide/check-docker-hardening-configurations.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
