Abstract
Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for preventing a security threat to a virtual machine. The apparatus includes one or more processors and executable memory for storing at least one program executed by the one or more processors. The at least one program is configured such that a hypervisor for virtualization in a host kernel executes a virtualization instruction corresponding to the service requested by a virtual machine of a host application and such that a hypervisor for monitoring interrupts the virtualization instruction in response to a security threat event occurring in the monitoring area of the hypervisor for virtualization and controls the process and thread of the host kernel. The hypervisor for monitoring is located in an area separate from the area in which the hypervisor for virtualization is located in the host kernel.
