Summary: | Techniques for secure data extraction in a virtual or cloud environment are presented. Desired data from a Virtual Machine (VM) or an entire VM is extracted and encrypted with a key. This key is sealed to a machine or a group of machines. The encrypted data is then migrated and successfully used on startup for instances of the VM by having the ability to access the sealed key (and unsealing it) to decrypt the encrypted data. |
