  • Virtualization
    • Pros
      • Efficient use of resources
      • Cost and energy savings
      • Fault and threat isolation
      • Simple backups, recovery, and replication
    • Cons
      • Compromised performance
      • Increased complexity
      • Increased licensing costs
      • Single point of failure
  • Host
    • Physical computer hosting a virtual machine
  • Guest
    • Each virtual machine
  • Hypervisor
  • VMs software/hardware are assigned when created in the hypervisor
  • SSL and TLS
    • Methods of encrypting TCP-IP transmissions
    • Both protocols work side by side
    • When a client and server establishes an SSL/TLS they establish a unique session
      • Association between client and server
      • Defined by agreement
      • Specific set of encryption techniques
    • Handshake protocol
      • Allows client and server to authenticate
      • Similar to a TCP three-way handshake
