Abstract
A virtual computer system service determines, for a selected virtual machine image, information that is generated based at least in part on the contents of the selected virtual machine image. The virtual computer system service may compare this information to other information obtained from other virtual machine images to determine a similarity score for each of these other virtual machine images. Based at least in part on these similarity scores, the virtual computer system service determines a provenance for the selected virtual machine image, which is provided to an administrator, customer or other entity.
