Abstract

Virtualization has become the new buzz in any industry, especially with the increased acceptance of storage networks. Virtualization has the main advantages such as secure logging and terra architecture which enhances overall performance of the server and effectively reduces the cost. Although virtualization is not a new paradigm, the way in which it is used in modern system architectures provides a powerful platform for system building. Para-Virtualized system is a category under the virtualization which modifies the guest operating system to execute operations directly on the hypervisor so that no performance loss is observed during the emulation of the complete hardware. Since the Para-Virtualization is a technology that was initiated by an open-source community, security concerns with this technology are of prime concern. Therefore, understanding the threats faced by this technology and providing adequate mitigations against these threats is essential. This paper addresses the growing security concerns associated in a Para-virtualized environment. Some of the most common threats are Denial of Resource Attack, Sniffing Attack, and Authentication and Authorization issues. This paper provides the readers an insight to modeling threats, analyzing threat parameters, deriving risk equations, and validating the results in Para-virtualized environment.
