In this work we present the Byzantine Fault Tolerant Non-Blocking Weak Atomic Commitment (BFTNBWAC), a new proposal to solve the Non-Blocking Atomic Commitment (NBAC) problem, where the participants of protocol may fail in a Byzantine way. Our approach is based on virtualization technology, in which we specify a distributed system's architecture that makes possible the detection, masking and confining the faulty behavior of the transactions' participants.
