One of the striking things in this article was when he said they might have been compromised by their "CloudCo" (Cloud Provider). If I'm going to build any systems that handle money or bitcoin in a cloud provider, I will make damn sure I don't trust the cloud provider with anything. Everything should be fully encrypted such that even a breach of trust from the hosting provider would not compromise your data/funds. I…
Encryption won't protect you - the cloud provider has access to executables (in ram and perhaps on disc), your keys (ram and disc) and the data both pre and post encryption (in ram). Because they control the hypervisor, they control everything. That means they have as much access and authority as the code that you are running on their servers have. So the only way to protect yourself from them is to limit what your s…
There's always the in-memory vulnerability, which is harder to mitigate, but requires an attacker with physical access to the hypervisor, so it's much more difficult to execute (as most meat-space hacks are).
