Docker Trusted Registry (DTR) version 1.4.x enhances secure image management within firewalls, supporting compliance and facilitating CI/CD. Key features include a user interface for organizations and permissions, image search capabilities, and integration with Docker Content Trust for signature management. Future updates aim to improve integrations with Docker Universal Control Plane and end-to-end authentication with LDAP/AD.
