Description
Shielded VMs are fortified virtual machines on Google Cloud that incorporate a range of security measures designed to safeguard against rootkits and bootkits. By utilizing Shielded VMs, enterprises can shield their workloads from various threats, including remote intrusions, privilege escalations, and harmful insider actions. These VMs utilize sophisticated security features such as secure and measured boot processes, a virtual trusted platform module (vTPM), UEFI firmware, and continuous integrity monitoring. With just a few simple clicks, users can activate Shielded VMs, providing protection against sophisticated threats from malicious insiders, compromised guest firmware, and both kernel and user-mode vulnerabilities. This streamlined process makes it easier than ever to enhance the security posture of cloud-based workloads.
Description
KVM, which stands for Kernel-based Virtual Machine, serves as a comprehensive virtualization solution for Linux systems operating on x86 hardware equipped with virtualization capabilities (such as Intel VT or AMD-V). It comprises a loadable kernel module, known as kvm.ko, that underpins the essential virtualization framework, along with a processor-specific module, either kvm-intel.ko or kvm-amd.ko. By utilizing KVM, users can operate several virtual machines that run unaltered Linux or Windows operating systems. Each virtual machine is allocated its own set of virtualized hardware components, including a network interface card, storage, graphics adapter, and more. KVM is an open-source project, with its kernel component integrated into the mainline Linux kernel since version 2.6.20, while the userspace aspect has been incorporated into the mainline QEMU project starting from version 1.3. This integration enables widespread deployment and support for various virtualization applications and services.
