| Abstract | In the public clouds, an adversary can co-locate his or her virtual machines (VMs) with others on the same physical servers to start an attack against the integrity, confidentiality or availability. The one important factor to decrease the likelihood of this co-location attack is the VMs placement strategy. However, a co-location resistant strategy will compromise the resources optimization of the cloud providers. The tradeoff between security and resources optimization introduces one of the most crucial challenges in the cloud security. In this work we propose a placement strategy allowing the decrease of co-location rate by compromising the VM startup time instead of the optimization of resources. We give a mathematical analysis to quantify the co-location resistance. The proposed strategy is evaluated against the abusing placement locality, where the attack and target VMs are launched simultaneously or within a short time window. Referring to EC2 placement strategy, the best co-location resistant strategy out of the existing public cloud providers strategies, our strategy decreases enormously the co-location attacks with a slight VM startup delay (relatively to the actual VM startup delay in the public cloud providers). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
