Virtualization as Virus Containment
Overview Despite the increasing number of available security measures, even the best of today's security software cannot locate and eliminate every computer virus that today's technologically savvy hackers have to offer. As quickly as antivirus software is developed, so is another virus or malware program. Fortunately, virtualization technologies, such as those offered by Parallels and SWsoft, serve as a formidable first line of defense against viruses, hackers, spyware, and malware. This paper discusses how virtualized environments protect the host computer and its primary operating system from viruses, and other devastating software as well as how users can benefit from using virtual machines to protect their personal information and data.
