Virtual Machine Detection: How It Working

[Vektor T13]

In this webinar, we take an in-depth look at virtual machine detection:how software determines that it is running inside a VM, and what techniques are used to bypass these checks.We will cover:

• why VM detection is used in the first place;
• the main categories of virtual machine detection methods;
• hardware and software indicators of virtualization;
• the role of BIOS, CPU, devices, and system artifacts in detection;
• common mistakes and weak points in protection mechanisms;
• why fully hiding a virtual machine is extremely difficult in practice.

This webinar will be especially useful for those involved in:

• online exams and proctoring systems;
• cheats and anti-cheat solutions;
• anti-detect browsers;
• multi-accounting and environment isolation;
• security protections and anti-analysis techniques.

The material is presented in a structured and systematic way and is useful both for broadening your understanding and for gaining practical insight into how modern VM detection mechanisms work and why bypassing them is a non-trivial task.
