Isolated Mini-domain for Trusted Cloud Computing

On the cloud system, guest domains for cloud customers can be attacked by one of administrators with privilege or remote hackers who can compromise management tools. Therefore, the customers need a guarantee that their domains run on the secure environment with a protection against them. In this paper, we examine the security issues incurred by I/O model of hyper visors with a management domain, and propose an isolated mini-domain to protect the guest domains under the untrustworthy environment by addressing those issues.
