This SpringerBrief discusses the uber eXtensible Microhypervisor Framework (uberXMHF), a novel microhypervisor system security architecture and framework that can isolate securitysensitive applications from other untrustworthy applications on commodity platforms, enabling their safe coexistence. uberXMHF, in addition, facilitates runtime monitoring of the untrustworthy components, which is illustrated in this SpringerBrief. uberXMHF focuses on three goals which are keys to achieving practical security on commodity platforms: (a) commodity compatibility (e.g., runs unmodified Linux and Windows) and unfettered access to platform hardware; (b) low trusted computing base and complexity; and (c) efficient implementation.uberXMHF strives to be a comprehensible, practical and flexible platform for performing microhypervisor research and development. uberXMHF encapsulates common hypervisor core functionality in a framework that allows developers and users to build custom microhypervisor based (securitysensitive) applications (called "uberapps"). The authors describe several uberapps that employ uberXMHF and showcase the framework efficacy and versatility. These uberapps span a wide spectrum of security applications including application compartmentalization and sandboxing, attestation, approved code execution, key management, tracing, verifiable resource accounting, trustedpath and ondemand I/O isolation.The authors are encouraged by the end result a clean, barebones, low trusted computing base microhypervisor framework for commodity platforms with desirable performance characteristics and an architecture amenable to manual audits and/or formal reasoning. Active, opensource development of uberXMHF continues.The primary audience for this SpringerBrief is system (security) researchers and developers of commodity system software. Practitioners working in system security deployment mechanisms within industry and defense, as well as advancedlevel students studying computer science with an interest in security will also want to read this SpringerBrief.
