Abstract

With the increasing use of cloud computing, virtualization has developed rapidly as the key technology. Especially, Docker container technology has become the focus of attention of researchers because of its advantages of easy deployment and high performance. Consequently the research of Docker security has become more and more important. Based on the brief introduction of Docker architecture and components, the security of Docker is analyzed quantitatively, and is compared with the traditional virtualization. The importance of the penetration testing technology in ensuring the security of the container is clarified. Then, the typical penetration testing technology of denial service, container escape and side channel in Docker environment is studied. Finally, the penetration testing process in Docker container environment is analyzed in detail.
