ABSTRACT:
The compliance of a virtual machine image to a set of requirements is determined during a process to potentially introduce the virtual machine image into a network. One or more virtual machine images are identified. During compliance testing, the identified virtual machine image is controlled such that it cannot connect to the network. One or more tests are carried out to determine if the virtual machine image is compliant with one or more predetermined requirements. If a virtual machine is compliant with said one or more predetermined requirements, the virtual machine image is connected to the network.
