System management defines the organization of information technology frameworks in a business data center. To be effective, a system management plan needs to deliver at their best the IT as a Service (ITaaS) and to allow the employees to respond in a rapid manner to the changing environment of a company. However, system management platforms deal with security breaches. Henceforth, the purpose of this paper is to present a solution that, with the aid of security models, there can be implemented a secure isolation. The designed security breach focuses the wireless communication protocols, showing that a Wi-Fi password can be hacked using a specialized software, such as Kali Linux. The analysis has been done on a well-known protocol used in Internet of Things (IoT) device management, called Lightweight Machine to Machine (LwM2M). For securely using LwM2M within a virtualized environment, On Demand Secure Isolation (ODSI) proposes Kali Linux for LwM2M's security bugs, as well as a solution for system management protection. The chosen security models that will be described are the Network Manager, the Keyring Manager and the Administration Manager.
