[$] The Linux SVSM project
If legacy networks are like individual homes with a few doorswhere a handful of people have the key, then cloud-based environments are likeapartment complexes that offer both higher density and greater flexibility,but which include more key holders and potential entry points. The importanceof protecting virtual machines (VMs) running in these environments - fromboth the host and other tenants - has become increasingly clear.The Linux Secure VM ServiceModule (SVSM) isa new, Rust-based, open-source project that aims to help preserve the confidentialityand integrity of VMs on AMD hardware.
