<title>Hypervisor Selection</title>
|
||
<para>Virtualization provides flexibility and other key benefits
|
||
that enable cloud building. However, a virtualization stack also
|
||
needs to be secured appropriately to reduce the risks associated
|
||
with hypervisor breakout attacks. That is, while a virtualization
|
||
stack can provide isolation between instances, or guest virtual
|
||
machines, there are situations where that isolation can be less
|
||
than perfect. Making intelligent selections for virtualization
|
||
stack as well as following the best practices outlined in this
|
||
chapter can be included in a layered approach to cloud security.
|
||
Finally, securing your virtualization stack is critical in order
|
||
to deliver on the promise of multi-tenant, either between
|
||
customers in a public cloud, between business units in a private
|
||
cloud, or some mixture of the two in a hybrid cloud.</para>
|
||
<para>In this chapter, we discuss the hypervisor selection process. In the chapters that follow, we provide the foundational information needed for securing a virtualization stack.</para>

||
<title>Hypervisors in OpenStack</title>
|
||
<para>Whether OpenStack is deployed within private data centers or as a public cloud service, the underlying virtualization technology provides enterprise-level capabilities in the realms of scalability, resource efficiency, and uptime. While such high-level benefits are generally available across many OpenStack-supported hypervisor technologies, there are significant differences in each hypervisor's security architecture and features, particularly when considering the security threat vectors which are unique to elastic OpenStack environments. As applications consolidate into single Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) platforms, instance isolation at the hypervisor level becomes paramount. The requirement for secure isolation holds true across commercial, government, and military communities.</para>
|
||
<para>Within the framework of OpenStack you can choose from any number of hypervisor platforms and corresponding OpenStack plugins to optimize your cloud environment. In the context of the OpenStack Security guide, we will be highlighting hypervisor selection considerations as they pertain to feature sets that are critical to security. However, these considerations are not meant to be an exhaustive investigation into the pros and cons of particular hypervisors. NIST provides additional guidance in Special Publication 800-125, "<emphasis>Guide to Security for Full Virtualization Technologies</emphasis>".</para>

<title>Selection Criteria</title>
|
||
<para>As part of your hypervisor selection process, you will need to consider a number of important factors to help increase your security posture. Specifically, we will be looking into the following areas:</para>

||
<itemizedlist><listitem>

<para>Common Criteria</para>

</itemizedlist>
|

<para>Additionally, the following security-related criteria are highly encouraged to be evaluated when selecting a hypervisor for OpenStack deployments:<itemizedlist><listitem>
|
||
<para>Has the hypervisor undergone Common Criteria certification? If so, to what levels?</para>
|
||
</listitem>
|

<listitem>
|
||
<para>Is the underlying cryptography certified by a third-party?</para>
|
||
</listitem>
|
||
</itemizedlist><bridgehead>Team Expertise</bridgehead> Most likely, the most important aspect in hypervisor selection is the expertise of your staff in managing and maintaining a particular hypervisor platform. The more familiar your team is with a given product, its configuration, and its eccentricities, the less likely will there be configuration mistakes. Additionally, having staff expertise spread across an organization on a given hypervisor will increase availability of your systems, allow for developing a segregation of duties, and mitigate problems in the event that a team member is unavailable.</para>
|
||
<section xml:id="ch051_vss-intro-idp252752">
|
||
<title>Product or Project Maturity</title>
|
||
<para>The maturity of a given hypervisor product or project is critical to your security posture as well. Product maturity will have a number of effects once you have deployed your cloud, in the context of this security guide we are interested in the following:</para>
|
||
<itemizedlist><listitem>
|
||
<para>Availability of expertise</para>
|

</listitem>
|

<listitem>
|

|
||
<para>Timeliness and Availability of updates</para>
|
||
</listitem>
|
||
<listitem>
|
||
<para>Incidence response</para>
|
||
</listitem>
|
||
</itemizedlist>
|
||
<para>One of the biggest indicators of a hypervisor's maturity is the size and vibrancy of the community that surrounds it. As this concerns security, the quality of the community will affect the availability of expertise should you need additional cloud operators. It is also a sign of how widely deployed the hypervisor is, in turn leading to the battle readiness of any reference architectures and best practices.</para>
|
||
<para>Further, the quality of community, as it surrounds an open source hypervisor like KVM or Xen, will have a direct impact on the timeliness of bug fixes and security updates. When investigating both commercial and open source hypervisors, you will want to look into their release and support cycles as well as the time delta between the announcement of a bug or security issue and a patch or response. Lastly, the supported capabilities of OpenStack compute vary depending on the hypervisor chosen. Refer to the <link xlink:href="https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/HypervisorSupportMatrix">OpenStack Hypervisor Support Matrix</link> for OpenStack compute feature support by hypervisor.</para>

|
||
<title>Certifications and Attestations</title>
|
||
<para>One additional consideration when selecting a hypervisor is the availability of various formal certifications and attestations. While they may not be requirements for your specific organization, these certifications and attestations speak to the maturity, production readiness, and thoroughness of the testing a particular hypervisor platform has been subjected to.</para>

<title>Common Criteria</title>
|

<para>Common Criteria is an internationally standardized software evaluation process, used by governments and commercial companies to validate software technologies perform as advertised. In the government sector, NSTISSP No. 11 mandates that U.S. Government agencies only procure software which has been Common Criteria certified, a policy which has been in place since July 2002. It should be specifically noted that OpenStack has not undergone Common Criteria certification, however many of the available hypervisors have.</para>

<para>The KVM hypervisor has been Common Criteria certified through the U.S. Government and commercial distributions, which have been validated to separate the runtime environment of virtual machines from each other, providing foundational technology to enforce instance isolation.

<para>In the United States the National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) certifies cryptographic algorithms through a process known the Cryptographic Module Validation Program.

<para>To wrap up our discussion around hypervisor selection, it is important to call out the differences between using LXC (Linux Containers) or Baremetal systems vs using a hypervisor like KVM. Specifically, the focus of this security guide will be largely based on having a hypervisor and virtualization platform. However, should your implementation require the use of a baremetal or LXC environment, you will want to pay attention to the particular differences in regard to deployment of that environment. In particular, you will need to provide your end users with assurances that the node has been properly sanitized of their data prior to re-provisioning. Additionally, prior to reusing a node, you will need to provide assurances that the hardware has not been tampered or otherwise compromised.</para>
