Abstract

The horizontal IaaS federation is an emerging concept where the virtual resources are delivered to the users from the federated entities. There are a few challenges to manage the virtual resources securely in federated environment as follows. First, the virtual resources are spread over the federating entities. Second, the federation is a special case of distributed system where the resources are collectively owned by the federating participants. This paper proposes a security framework for the management of federated virtual resources by splitting all the security related modules into two parts: local and global sub-modules.
