Abstract
A method for managing a microvisor includes: issuing an API call to a microvisor agent to obtain a configuration template (CT) required to provision an LCS on an IHS; upon obtaining the CT, sending the CT to a microvisor kernel via the microvisor API; provisioning the LCS based on the CT; upon provisioning of the LCS and based on the microvisor kernel's request, initiating a guest BIOS of the LCS; notifying, via a GUI, an administrator about the provisioned LCS; after notifying the administrator: monitoring communication traffic of the LCS; analyzing the communication traffic to generate an analysis output; making, based on the analysis output, a determination that the activity is a malicious activity; and implementing, based on the determination, a security policy to disrupt a malicious user of the LCS.
