Abstract
Concepts and technologies directed to agentless personal firewall security in virtualized datacenters are disclosed herein. Embodiments can include a computer system that can host a hypervisor via a memory and a processor. Upon execution, the processor can cause the computer system to perform operations. The operations can include receiving an inbound communication request to a virtual machine associated with the hypervisor. The operations also can include identifying a virtual port associated with the virtual machine based on the inbound communication request. The operations can include determining that the inbound communication request lacks an identity of a virtual application process that executes on the virtual machine. The operation also can include building a virtual machine memory map. The operation also can include forcing exposure of the virtual application process based on the virtual machine memory map.
