Abstract
A system for logically separating a server using client virtualization includes a client terminal including a virtual environment generation unit for generating a virtual environment, and a virtualized server including a local storage unit, an authentication server for performing authentication on the client terminal when a request for access to the local storage unit is received from a process executed in the virtual environment, and a virtualization filter drier for allowing or blocking the access request to the local storage unit based on the authentication result of the client terminal. The client terminal further includes a virtualization filter driver for transmitting the access request from the process executed in the virtual environment to the local storage unit, and blocking the access request from the process without being made through the virtual environment to the local storage unit.
