Hello. Is the environment of my guest OS secluded from the host OS in such a way that, if I get an intrusion or malware problem from the internet on my guest, my host OS would be totally secured from it? For example, if I put a website up on the guest and it gets compromised, can my host be affected? In a worse case scenario, could I just rebuild the guest, or restore from a clean backup?
In such an event, where the guest was compromised and I wanted to restore a backup, would the whole VM have to be reinstalled, or would I only have to replace all of the contents of one folder, namely, as in Windows, %userprofile%\VirtualBox VMs\guest-name\? Thanks.
