Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for securing an application running on a guest. An example method includes detecting, by a guest running on a virtual machine, that a set of physical memory pages is allocated to an application. The virtual machine runs on a hypervisor, and the application runs on the guest. During runtime, the guest may send a request to the hypervisor to set the set of physical memory pages to an executable-by-user mode in the hypervisor's page tables.
