Abstract

Cloud security and privacy is a very challenging problem to solve. We started a project to explore a new approach to addressing this problem by utilising a unikernel based solution. In this paper, we outline the technical details of such an approach, identifying how this new approach can better address the issues involved. We have demonstrated how this new approach can improve the status quo.
