Abstract :
Virtualisation is one of the important technologies for the realisation of cloud computing. A Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) is an additional software layer which has complete control on the physical resources and enables to run multiple operating systems on a scalable computer. Recently some of the techniques have been proposed to develop Trusted Virtual domains. A trusted virtual domain (TVD) enables grouping of related virtual machines running on separate physical machine into a single network domain with a unified security policy. In this paper we analyze the security issues related to TVD and propose security techniques to deal with the attacks in TVD.
