Abstract

See full text

A method, system and computer-usable medium are disclosed for controlling access to a node deployed in a cloud environment. A new node, based upon a common image, is created in a cloud computing environment. A unique set of randomized system parameters are then generated for the new node, which is then mapped to a set of generic system parameters. A request to access the new node is intercepted, which contains the generic system parameters. The intercepted access request is then parsed to extract the set of generic system parameters, which are then replaced with the unique set of randomized system parameters associated with the target node to generate a modified access request. The modified access request is then forwarded to the target node.
