Remark:
This paper presents VMIGuard, a security solution that uses Virtual Machine Introspection (VMI) to detect and prevent service integrity violations caused by malicious insiders. It focuses on protecting version control systems against unauthorized modifications that could introduce vulnerabilities, backdoors, or malicious code into software.
The proposed solution monitors authenticated modifications and verifies the integrity of retrieved version control system content in real time. The authors evaluate their approach using Git and demonstrate that VMIGuard can prevent the distribution of manipulated content, with a maximum worst-case response-time overhead of approximately 10%.
