<ul><li>Docker images are the backbone of containerized applications. However, without proper optimization, they can become bloated, slow, and insecure.</li><li>Methods to optimize Docker images include: using minimal base images, implementing multi-stage builds, removing unnecessary files, and optimizing layer usage.</li><li>Improving Docker image security involves using official and trusted images, scanning for vulnerabilities, avoiding running as root, and keeping dependencies updated.</li><li>To speed up Docker builds, leverage build cache, enable parallel builds with BuildKit, and use docker buildx for multi-platform builds.</li></ul>
