| Jan 11, 2012 at 20:53 | comment | added | Jeff Ferland♦ | @TheLQ I think that this is the most concrete example of software available. It may not be the ideal answer, but it is a candidate for the best answer available. Objectively, the distinction between a rootkit and a "perferct" hypervisor that the guest can't be aware of is pretty damn slim. | |

| Jan 11, 2012 at 19:16 | comment | added | TheLQ | How will a rootkit possibly solve this problem? I'm looking for concrete software or a concrete group of software, not a academic idea | |
| Jan 11, 2012 at 19:06 | comment | added | Jeff Ferland♦ | +1 -- whatever you classify it as, that's a proper example of code and a proper answer. It's also an academic piece of code that is open for review and was created for demonstration. | |
