We propose HyperShield, which is a hypervisor that can be inserted into and removed from a running operating system, for improving security. While many existing security-oriented hypervisors require modifying or rebooting an overlying operating system, HyperShield does not require this. HyperShield is intended to be a general framework for various security mechanisms. The current implementation provides...
Virtualized environments are important building blocks in consolidated data centers and cloud computing. Full virtualization (FV) allows unmodified guest OSes to run on virtualization-aware microprocessors. However, the significant overhead of device emulation in FV has caused high I/O overhead. Current implementations based on paravirtualization can only reduce such overhead partially. This paper...
Virtual machine monitors (VMMs), also called hypervisors, can be used to construct a trusted computing base (TCB) enhancing the security of existing operating systems. The complexity of a VMM-based TCB causes the high risk of security vulnerabilities. Therefore, this paper proposes a two-step execution mechanism to reduce the complexity of a VMM-based TCB. We propose a method to separate a conventional...
In recent years, as the data processed by governmental or commercial organizations increases, cases involving information leak have risen. It is difficult to control information on many distributed end-point computers using conventional security mechanisms. Therefore, we have been proposed a novel secure VMM (Virtual Machine Monitor) architecture which is used as a foundation of security policy enforcement...
