September 23, virtualization technology for the Linux kernel Xen was given a hat-trick with 3 security vulnerabilities. Xen vulnerabilities can be jumped out of the virtual host environment (ultra vires), or read other user data, control the hypervisor itself (host). A remote attacker could exploit a vulnerability that could cause the host system to crash and deny service to legitimate users. Xen Vulnerabilities and impact range is not small, such as Amazon AWS Large-scale restart server-the entire repair cycle lasted 5 days (from September 25 7 o'clock in the afternoon to September 30 5 o'clock in the afternoon), impact ...

Over the past few decades, firewalls have been a port-based guardian of the Internet. 　　Now vendors are scrambling to roll out so-called "next-generation firewalls" because these "application-aware" firewalls can monitor and control access based on application usage. In addition, many firewalls have added more and more features to try to discover the 0 attacks, including intrusion prevention systems (IPS), web filtering, VPN, data loss protection, malware filtering, and even threat detection sandbox. For a separate IPs, because of its application control, it may be called "Next Generation IPs" ...

In recent years, cloud computing is a very popular research field, in fact, it is not a new technology, but a lot of technology integration, including distributed computing, dynamic and expansion of a variety of technology algorithms, and virtualization is the most important technology in cloud computing.

Virtual Machine Management program is a commodity, then where do we go? 　　Virtualized physical computers are the backbone of the public cloud [note] and private cloud [note], enabling enterprises to optimize hardware utilization, enhance security, support multi-tenant, and so on. Early virtualization approaches were based primarily on analog CPUs, such as x86 on PowerPC Macs, enabling users to run DOS and Windows. 　　Not only do you need to simulate CPUs, but you also simulate other components in your hardware environment, including graphics adapters, hard disks, network adapters, memory, and interfaces. ...
