Abstract
The present application discloses a virtual trusted platform module (vTPM)-based virtual machine security protection method and system. The method, executed by a physical host, includes: receiving a primary seed acquisition request sent by a virtual machine, where the primary seed acquisition request carries a UUID; sending the UUID to a KMC, so that the KMC generates a primary seed according to the UUID; and receiving the primary seed fed back by the KMC, and sending the primary seed to the virtual machine, so that the virtual machine creates a root key of a vTPM according to the primary seed, where the root key is used by the vTPM to create a key for the virtual machine to protect security of the virtual machine. As such, the same root key can be created by using the primary seed.
