Abstract:
Systems and methods for migrating encrypted storage blocks in a security enhanced manner. An example method may comprise: selecting, by the hypervisor, a first storage block and a second storage block, the first storage block being associated with a virtual machine; associating the second storage block with the virtual machine; providing, by the hypervisor, an instruction for the virtual machine to copy content of the first storage block to the second storage block; and enabling the virtual machine to access the content in the second storage block.
