Dynamic partitioning of physical memory among virtual machines
R. Jithin, Priya Chandran · 2016
It is an open challenge for virtualization technology architects to provide security to Virtual Machine (VM), in the presence of an infected hypervisor, without much compromise on performance. A few hardware modifications have been introduced by manufactures like Intel and AMD to provide a secure VM environment with low performance degradation. These solutions are unable to provide VM isolation in the presence of an infected hypervisor. In this paper we propose a novel memory architecture model, that can achieve a secure physical memory region to each VM without performance degradation.
