Abstract
Disclosed systems and methods provide location-aware multi-factor authentication for VM users in combination with the prohibited users lists and disconnecting VMs based on user behavior or activity. Implementations may employ a hypervisor enabled by a lightweight, secure operating system (LSOS) as a foundational, enabling, and OS-agnostic technology for multiple uses cases. An LSOS authenticator module may generate IP location based authentication number for user authentication. An OEM Secure VM manager in Domain0 (Dom0) of a Xen cloud computing model may monitor user activity while Secure OEM Hypercall communication is employed for all communication from VM to LSOS. Embodiments may employ a LSOS VM prohibited users module and hypervisor action module to remove users and destroy VMs based on data received from Dom0, VM Manager and the user module in the VM.
