Trying to reason about this: so the vulnerability exists if two VMs are sharing resources within on the same physical box.
If that is true, would this be mitigated by "virtual clouds" (things like https://aws.amazon.com/vpc/ https://aws.amazon.com/vpc/) or is that just taking place at the network layer?
- res0nat0r 10y agoVPC's are a software network layer construct, your VM's still can be launched on hosts with other customer VM's unless you are using something like 'Dedicated Hosts'.
- superuser2 10y agoIf you want to be single-tenant but still in the "cloud" paradigm, you can get a private cloud (NOT a virtual private cloud), i.e. an OpenStack instance just for you running on dedicated servers. Some providers will administer the OpenStack part for you - they'd call that a managed private cloud.
