The Dockerfile has been updated to replace a simple curl-based Docker installer with a secure, multi-step installation sequence. The new approach includes apt-get update, GPG key setup, Docker repository configuration, and explicit installation of Docker packages with proper cleanup.

41-52: Solid Docker installation approach following official guidelines.

This follows Docker's recommended installation method for Ubuntu, with good practices like set -eux for fail-fast behavior and proper cleanup.

Minor observation: ca-certificates and curl are already installed in lines 20 and 32. You could simplify line 43 to just install gnupg:

-    DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends ca-certificates curl gnupg; \
+    DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends gnupg; \

This is optional since apt handles already-installed packages gracefully.
