Putting together the VMM architecture, TCG hardware and application-oriented ＂thin＂ virtual machine （VM）, Trusted VMM-based security architecture is present in this paper with the character of reduced and distributed trusted computing base （TCB）. It provides isolation and integrity guarantees based on which general security requirements can be satisfied.展开更多

There are multi types of security challenge must be understood and countermeasures. One of the major security challenges is resources of the cloud computing infrastructures are provided as services over the Internet, and entire data in the cloud computing are reside over network resources, that enables the data to be access through VMs. In this work, we describe security techniques for securing a VCCI, VMMs such as Encryption and Key Management (EKM), Access Control Mechanisms (ACMs), Virtual Trusted Platform Module (vTPM), Virtual Firewall (VF), and Trusted Virtual Domains (TVDs). In this paper we focus on security of virtual resources in Virtualized Cloud Computing Infrastructure (VCCI), Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) by describing types of attacks on VCCI, and vulnerabilities of VMMs and we describe the techniques for securing a VCCI.展开更多

CNC machine tool is a necessary tool for machining. It plays an important role in the mechanical design and machining fields. CNC machine tool is mainly composed of two parts of the machine body and the computer control system. Mechanical equipment failures usually related information such as vibration, sound, pressure, temperature performance. CNC machine tool vibration monitoring system with piezoelectric accelerometer, the eddy current displacement sensor, signal amplifier, signal conditioning modules. We can take an advantage of the CNC machine tool vibration monitoring system for vibration monitoring and fault diagnosis of CNC machine tools.展开更多

Aiming at these vulnerabilities,relative attack methods were presented in detail. Our experiments show that the attack methods,such as page mapping attack,data attack,and non-behavior detection attack,can attack simulated or original security monitors successfully. Defenders,who need to effectively strengthen their security monitors,can get an inspiration from these attack methods and find some appropriate solutions.展开更多

Their reliability and availability are critical for cloud computing. Virtualization and device emu- lation make the VMM code base large and the interface be- tween OS and VMM complex. This results in a code base that is very hard to verify the security of the VMM. For exam- ple, a misuse of a VMM hyper-call by a malicious guest OS can corrupt the whole VMM. The complexity of the VMM also makes it hard to formally verify the correctness of the system＇s behavior. In this paper a new VMM, operating sys- tem virtualization （OSV）, is proposed. The multiprocessor boot interface and memory configuration interface are virtu- alized in OSV at boot time in the Linux kernel. After booting, only inter-processor interrupt operations are intercepted by OSV, which makes the interface between OSV and OS sim- ple. The interface is verified using formal model checking, which ensures a malicious OS cannot attack OSV through the interface. Currently, OSV is implemented based on the AMD Opteron multi-core server architecture. Evaluation re- sults show that Linux running on OSV has a similar perfor- mance to native Linux. OSV has a performance improvement of 4%-13% over Xen.展开更多

Hypervisors are also popular for security as a means of isolation. The virtualization of information technology infrastructure creates the enablement of IT resources to be shared and used on several other devices and applications;this increases the growth of business needs. The environment created by virtualization is not restricted to any configuration physically or execution. The resources of a computer are shared logically. Hypervisors help in virtualization of hardware that is a software interact with the physical system, enabling or providing virtualized hardware environment to support multiple running operating system simultaneously utilizing one physical server. This paper explores the benefits, types and security issues of Virtualization Hypervisor in virtualized hardware environment.展开更多

However, existing solutions tend to focus on solving threats in a specific state of the VM. In this paper, we propose a novel VM lifecycle security protection framework based on trusted computing to solve the security threats to VMs throughout their entire lifecycle. Specifically, a concept of the VM lifecycle is presented divided up by the different active conditions of the VM. Then, a trusted computing based security protecti on framework is developed, which can exte nd the trusted relati on ship from trusted platform module to the VM and protect the security and reliability of the VM throughout its lifecycle. The theoretical analysis shows that our proposed framework can provide comprehensive safety to VM in all of its states. Furthermore, experiment results demonstrate that the proposed framework is feasible and achieves a higher level of security compared with some state-of-the-art schemes.展开更多
