Abstract

The rising use of microservice-based software deployment on the cloud leverages containerized software extensively. The security of applications running inside containers, as well as the container environment itself, are critical for infrastructure in cloud settings and 5G. To address security concerns, research efforts have been focused on container security with subfields such as intrusion detection, malware detection and container placement strategies. These security efforts are roughly divided into two categories: rule-based approaches and machine learning that can respond to novel threats. In this study, we survey the container security literature focusing on approaches that leverage machine learning to address security challenges.
