SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATICALLY SELECTING SECURITY VIRTUAL MACHINES

The invention relates to a system and method for automatically selecting security virtual machines. Disclosed herein are systems and methods of selecting security virtual machines (SVMs) for a virtualmachine (VM) in a virtual infrastructure. In one aspect, an exemplary method comprises, forming a list of SVMs, wherein SVM performs security tasks for the VM, and VM includes a security agent configured to interact with the SVM, determining restriction requirements of the security agent and removing from the list SVMs not conforming to restriction requirements on limits of interaction area of the security agent, polling SVMs remaining on the list to determine network accessibility of said SVMs and removing inaccessible SVMs, for each accessible SVM remaining on the list, determining whethera marker of the SVM matches that of the security agent of the VM and removing SVMs whose markers do not match the marker of the security agent, and providing the list of remaining SVMs to the securityagent of the VM. 本发明涉及用于自动
