The Virtual OS

/in /by

Consider the Virtual OS you created previously in this course (you can re-open the VM program to answer these questions). Imagine you were using the VM as part of a cloud server.

Create a PowerPoint-style presentation that includes the following features:

  • One slide that shows the host OS, guest OS, and hypervisor/VMM for your VM setup.
  • Slides that provide an example of a server-side defensive practice you could implement for each of the following security categories (one slide for each category):
    • Deterrent Controls
    • Preventative Controls
    • Detective Controls
    • Corrective Controls

(You may examine the various settings and configuration options in your VM to come up with ideas for each category.)

  • One slide that includes an example of client-side security recommendations you could recommend to customers using the data or application on your VM server.
  • And one or more slides making the case for running a cloud system on a VM instead of on a physical server.
