Exploiting Interfaces of Secure Encrypted Virtual Machines
Martin Radev, Mathias Morbitzer · Reversing and Offensive-Oriented Trends Symposium · 2020
Cloud computing is a convenient model for processing data remotely. However, users must trust their cloud provider with the confidentiality and integrity of the stored and processed data. To increase the protection of virtual machines, AMD introduced SEV, a hardware feature which aims to protect code and data in a virtual machine. This allows to store and process sensitive data in cloud environments without the need to trust the cloud provider or the underlying software.
