HyperLink: Virtual Machine Introspection and Memory Forensic Analysis without Kernel Source Code

open access: yes, 2016
Virtual Machine Introspection (VMI) is an approach to inspecting and analyzing the software running inside a virtual machine from the hypervisor. Similarly, memory forensics analyzes the memory snapshots or dumps to understand the runtime state of a ...

A lightweight method for virtual machine introspection

Programming and Computer Software, 2017
A method for the introspection of virtual machines is proposed. The main distinctive feature of this method is that it makes it possible to obtain information about the system operation using the minimum knowledge about its internal organization. The proposed approach uses rarely changing parts of the application binary interface, such as identifiers ...

A formal model for virtual machine introspection

Proceedings of the 1st ACM workshop on Virtual machine security, 2009
Virtual machine introspection (VMI) describes the method of monitoring and analyzing the state of a virtual machine from the hypervisor level. In this paper, we present a formal discussion of the development of VMI-based security applications. We begin by identifying three major challenges that all VMI-based security applications must overcome.

Virtual Machine Introspection: Techniques and Applications

2015 10th International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security, 2015
Virtual Machine Introspection (VMI) is a technique that enables monitoring virtual machines at the hypervisor layer. This monitoring concept has gained recently a considerable focus in computer security research due to its complete but semantic less visibility on virtual machines activities and isolation from them.

Efficient Checkpointing of Virtual Machines Using Virtual Machine Introspection

2014 14th IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Cluster, Cloud and Grid Computing, 2014
Cloud Computing environments rely heavily on system-level virtualization. This is due to the inherent benefits of virtualization including fault tolerance through checkpoint/restart (C/R) mechanisms. Because clouds are the abstraction of large datacenters and large datacenters have a higher potential for failure, it is imperative that a C/R mechanism ...

Introspection of Virtual Machine Memory Resource in the Virtualized Systems

2019 IEEE International Conference on Big Data and Smart Computing (BigComp), 2019
Nowadays, data center and cloud servers have commonly adopted virtualization technologies to consolidate multiple servers into a physical one. It is because cloud service providers can achieve low server maintenance cost by improving resource utilization and reducing power consumption through server consolidation with virtualization technologies ...

CryptVMI: Encrypted Virtual Machine Introspection in the Cloud

2014 IEEE 7th International Conference on Cloud Computing, 2014
Virtualization techniques are the key in both public and private cloud computing environments. In such environments, multiple virtual instances are running on the same physical machine. The logical isolation between systems makes security assurance weaker than physically isolated systems.

Virtual Machine Introspection Based SSH Honeypot

Proceedings of the 4th Workshop on Security in Highly Connected IT Systems, 2017
A honeypot provides information about the new attack and exploitation methods and allows analyzing the adversary's activities during or after exploitation. One way of an adversary to communicate with a server is via secure shell (SSH). SSH provides secure login, file transfer, X11 forwarding, and TCP/IP connections over untrusted networks.

Virtual Machine Introspection for Anomaly-Based Keylogger Detection

2020 IEEE 21st International Conference on High Performance Switching and Routing (HPSR), 2020
Software Keyloggers are dominant class of malicious applications that surreptitiously logs all the user activity to gather confidential information. Among many other types of keyloggers, API-based keyloggers can pretend as unprivileged program running in a user-space to eavesdrop and record all the keystrokes typed by the user.

Evolution of digital forensics in virtualization by using virtual machine introspection

Proceedings of the 51st ACM Southeast Conference, 2013
Computer virtualization is not a new technology, it has become increasingly important because of the many advantages it offers to businesses and individuals to reduce costs, while introducing new challenges to the field of digital forensics. As virtualization continues to be adopted by more and more companies every year, malware and hacker attacks are ...
