# WARNING
_EMBA_ is using multiple protection layers like chroot, docker, read-only filesystem, non executable mounts and disabled networking functionality.
_EMBA_ is using multiple protection layers like chroot, docker, non executable mounts and disabled networking functionality.
Nevertheless, _EMBA_ should only be used on test systems! It should not be installed/deployed on production systems.
There are multiple reasons for that:
* The _EMBA_ docker container is running in privileged mode which will result in full system compromise if you are testing malicious firmware.
* _EMBA_ automatically executes untrusted code from the firmware which could lead to breakouts that are able to compromise the host system.
* _EMBA_ automatically builds and boots a firmware image based on the untrusted firmware under test.
* _EMBA_ is heavily based on a lot of different components that are sometimes outdated and not well maintained anymore.
