Hierarchical secure virtualization model for cloud.

Cloud services are providing on-demand resources via virtualization technologies. This will make cloud computing a potential target for cyber attacks. Most proposed security models for virtualization are working above virtualization on host OS. Almost all proposed cloud security models suffers from...
