SEV-SNP is designed to secure workloads by preventing hypervisor attacks and ensuring that VM memory remains encrypted even from the host. I would like to know **when SEV-SNP will be supported in CloudStack**, and how it can be used once integrated. This feature is especially important for those utilizing AMD's SEV technology and seeking to ensure their VMs are as secure as possible. ### EXPECTED RESULTS - CloudStack should provide support for **SEV-SNP** in an upcoming release, allowing users to take advantage of enhanced security for their virtualized workloads. - Documentation or configuration options detailing how to enable and utilize **SEV-SNP** once available. ### ACTUAL RESULTS Currently, there is **no support for SEV-SNP** in CloudStack, which limits the ability to fully leverage AMD's SEV capabilities for securing virtualized environments.
