 # volatility2docker
+
+This is the original Volatility memory forensics tool, now as a Docker container.
+While Volatility 3 exists, it doesn't quite have the same mature feature set as 
+the original. This can be ran without having to worry about compability issues 
+between Python 3 and Python 2.
+
+##### to build the container from the same directory as the Dockerfile
+```
+docker build -t volatility2mint .
+```
+##### to run the container from a host directory with memory images present
+```
+docker run -it --mount type=bind,source=.,target=/userspace volatility2mint
+```
