Hypervisors and guest operating systems/virtual machines communicate in virtual environments to enable applications and other services. Security measures are a concern in implementing a secure environment. One feature may include at least one of identifying a session initiation request from a guest operation system at a hypervisor component of a server and receiving periodic messages from the guest operating system, and establishing and maintaining a session and connection between the hypervisor and the guest operating system responsive to receiving the periodic messages from the guest operating system.

Security application for a guest operating system in a virtual computing environment

Protecting a computer security application by executing the computer security application on a computer in a first namespace associated with an operating system of the computer, and creating a second namespace associated with the operating system of the computer, where the second namespace is accessible to the computer security application, and where the first namespace is inaccessible from the second namespace.
