In this paper, a virtual distributed monitoring environment called HyperSpector is described that achieves secure intrusion detection in distributed computer systems. While multiple Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSes) can protect a distributed system from attackers, they can increase the number of insecure points in the protected system. HyperSpector overcomes this problem without any additional hardware by using virtualization to isolate each IDS from the servers it monitors. The IDSes are located in a virtual machine called an IDS VM and the servers are located in a server VM. The IDS VMs among different hosts are connected using a virtual network.
