[openstack-dev] Regarding cache-based cross-VM side channel attacks in OpenStack

2018-08-23 Thread Darshan Tank
Dear Sir,

I would like to know, whether cache-based cross-VM side channel attacks are
possible in OpenStack VM or not ?

If the answer of above question is no, then what are the mechanisms
employed in OpenStack to prevent or to mitigate such types of security
threats?

I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks in advance for your support.

With Warm Regards,

[openstack-dev] [nova] seeking your kind support and assistance regarding securing hypervisor and virtual machines against security attacks or threats

2017-12-24 Thread Darshan Tank
Hi,

I'm working on security aspects in cloud computing. I focused on
virtualization specific vulnerabilities in cloud computing environment. I
selected OpenStack as my cloud computing software platform. In general,
there are two primary threats vectors in OpenStack.

1.  Hypervisor threats
2.  Virtual Machine (multi-tenant) threats

In OpenStack, "nova" is responsible for the management of virtual machines.

How to recognize and prevent a hypervisor and virtual machine attacks to
protect data in OpenStack?

How to secure hypervisor and virtual machine against security threats in
OpenStack? What are the methods, techniques or algorithms, OpenStack
community/developers followed to make openstack as secure cloud environment?

How one can contribute in securing OpenStack hypervisor and virtual
machines?

I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks in advance for your support.

With Warm Regards,

[openstack-dev] Regarding inter-VM inter process communication in OpenStack

2017-12-23 Thread Darshan Tank
Hi,

I have been working on inter-virtual machine inter process communication
(IPC) methods.

I would like to know whether current OpenStack framework supports inter-VM
shared memory concept or not ?

If not, then what are the mechanisms for inter-VM inter process
communication in OpenStack?

I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks in advance for your support.

With Warm Regards,
