Abstract
The method analyzes unauthorized intrusion into a computer network. Access is allowed to a virtualized operating system running on a hypervisor operating system hosted on a network device. A network attack is intercepted on the virtualized operating system using an introspection module with a virtual-machine-based rootkit module and its associated userland processes running on the hypervisor operating system. The network attack includes attack-identifying information. Forensic data is generated on the network attack from the attack-identifying information.
