+ - Scientists propose guaranteed hypervisor security->

Submitted by schliz
schliz writes "NCSU researchers are attempting to address today's "blind trust" of virtualisation with new security techniques that "guarantee" malware does not infect hypervisors. Their "HyperSafe" software uses the Write-Protect bit on hypervisor hardware, as well as a technique called restricted pointer indexing, which characterises the normal behavior of the system and prevents any deviation. A proof-of-concept prototype has been tested on BitVisor and Xen, in research that will be presented at an IEEE conference today."
