Smart Isolation in Large-Scale Production Computing Infrastructures - April 2015
Public Audience
Purpose: To highlight project progress. Information is generally at a higher level which is accessible to the interested public. All information contained in the report (regions 1-3) is a Government Deliverable/CDRL.
PI(s): Xiaohui (Helen) Gu, William Enck
Researchers: Rui Shu, Sigmund (Al) Gorski, Ben Andow
HARD PROBLEM(S) ADDRESSED
- Resilient Architectures - Our current focus is the creation and validation of a classification system of existing security isolation techniques, through which we will identify underlying design principles and tradeoffs that will lead to the design of next generation smart isolation techniques to support resilient architectures.

ACCOMPLISHMENT HIGHLIGHTS
- We have complete the first draft of the survey paper looking at isolation techniques. The paper considers the design space of providing security isolation and discusses the trade-offs between techniques.
- Rui Shu presented the survey paper at an NCSU manuscript review seminar and recieved feedback that was incorporated into the draft.
