TESTING INTEGRATED INDEPENDENT LEVELS OF SECURITY COMPONENTS HOSTED ON A VIRTUALIZATION PLATFORM

摘要

A virtualization platform that provides a systematic, transparent and local testing of components hosted by the virtualization platform in their integrated context. The virtualization platform comprises integrated interceptor modules connected to the components via communication channels, each interceptor module being interposed in the communication channel connecting two components, and an integrated analyzing device connected to the interceptor modules and comprising a control device and a testing device. The control device is configured to put each interceptor module in an operational mode selected out of a set of predetermined operational modes including a testing mode. The testing device is configured to locally test the components connected to the interceptor modules being put in the testing mode.
