Abstract
A method is provided in one example embodiment that includes rebasing a module in a virtual partition to load at a fixed address and storing a hash of a page of memory associated with the fixed address. An external handler may receive a notification associated with an event affecting the page. An internal agent within the virtual partition can execute a task and return results based on the task to the external handler, and a policy action may be taken based on the results returned by the internal agent. In some embodiments, a code portion and a data portion of the page can be identified and only a hash of the code portion is stored.
