Abstract

Techniques for mapping at least one physical system and at least one virtual system into at least two separate execution environments are provided. The techniques include discovering an implicitly enforced security policy in an environment comprising at least one physical system and at least one virtual system, using the discovered policy to create an enforceable isolation policy, and using the isolation policy to map the at least one physical system and at least one virtual system into at least two separate execution environments. Techniques are also provided for generating a database of one or more isolation policies.
