Container security system

A container module, comprising:

• a first type communication interface;
• a first component;
• a processing system that is coupled to the first type communication interface and the first component;
• and
• a memory system that is coupled to the processing system and that includes instruction that, when executed by the processing system, causes the processing system to provide a container engine that is configured to:
• communicatively couple to a first type second communication interface include in a first container system via the first type communication interface to form a first container-to-container connection;
• perform a first exchange of first election information of the container module and second election information of the first container system with the first container system via the first container-to-container connection;
• elect, based on the first election information and the second election information, the first component over a first container component included on the first container system that corresponds with the first component;
• and
• operate the first component.

A method to provide container network communications, comprising:

• communicatively coupling, by a container module, a first type communication interface included in the container module to a first type second communication interface included in a first container system to form a first container-to-container connection;
• performing, by the container module, a first exchange of first election information of the container module and second election information of the first container system with the first container system via the first container-to-container connection;
• electing, by the container module and based on the first election information and the second election information, a second type communication interface include in the container module to provide container network communications to a wide area network;
• and
• providing first container network communications via the second type communication interface to the wide area network.
