Virtual machines are vital tools that developers use to create cybersecurity solutions to manage threats. They help fight computer viruses and block hacking attempts.
A system virtual machine is fully virtualized; it provides a platform for the execution of a complete operating system. Here, multiple VMs can run in parallel on a host system, sharing the physical resources. Some examples are VMWare, VirtualBox, and Parallels.
Virtual machines allow you to run multiple operating systems without impacting the host operating system. VMs let you create safe, virtual environments to test apps or even study security vulnerabilities without high risk to the host machine.
VMS scans servers and devices holistically against vulnerabilities in the Common Vulnerabilities Scoring System (CVSS) database, which is the industry standard for assessing the severity of cyber-security vulnerabilities. VMS will be expanded to include advanced web application scanning.
