Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a method and system for virtual device communication filtering. The method includes receiving, within an electronic system, an instantiation request for a first virtual device and determining whether the first virtual device and a second virtual device are allowed to communicate based on an authorization record datastore. The method further includes modifying an authorization record of the authorization record datastore. The modifying comprises setting an indicator of a data filtering module to filter communication between the first virtual device and the second virtual device. A response can then be sent to the instantiation request.
