A Study of Hypervisor Based Virtualization and Related Major Security Issues in Cloud Computing Architecture

Abstract

Abstract: With the use of cloud computing, a comprehensive web platform made up of many different services may be created and used as needed. Through the internet, cloud computing offers its services in an affordable, dependable, and productive manner. By offering services on a rental basis, cloud computing lowers the expenditure required to buy gear, software, and software licenses. It offers backups to maintain multiple copies of the data and lowers the cost of licensing. With the use of cloud computing, a comprehensive web platform made up of many different services may be created and used as needed. One of today's most fascinating technologies is cloud computing, which is scalable, versatile, and can lower the cost and complexity of applications. These advantages turned cloud computing from a far-fetched notion into one of the most rapidly expanding fields of technology today. Actually, virtualization technology is based on an older technique called virtualization, which contains security flaws that need to be fixed before they influence cloud computing. Additionally, limited security features of virtualization technology are needed to protect a wide-area system like the cloud. Therefore, modifications to the conventional virtualization design are needed to create an effective security solution. In order to safeguard the cloud environment, this article suggests novel security architecture in a virtualization technology based on hypervisors.
