Abstract

Improve the safety of cloud computing is important for widely using it in real application. For solving this problem, a security mechanism for cloud computing platform based on virtualization is proposed in this paper. The system structure is introduced in detail, which is mainly composed of two parts, behavior gathering module and behavior analyzing module. Then, the functional characteristics of all entities are described, and the communication mechanism of the system is also represented.
