The virtual network function carried by the container has the advantages of strong orchestration ability and high flexibility. However, due to the poor natural isolation of the container, the security of the containerized virtual network function has attracted much attention. After trusted measurement of containerized virtual network functions based on trusted computing, how to reduce the privacy exposure of containerized virtual network functions under the premise of effective response to challengers has become an urgent problem to be solved. This paper proposes a trusted remote attestation protocol based on attribute certificates and ciphertext policy attribute-based encryption for containerized virtual network function, and uses Ban logic to perform inference analysis on this protocol. The results prove that the proposed is correct and can meet the expected goals.
