Abstract
Defensing cloud computing towards security threats is a challenging task. Cloud Computing (CC) acts as an open platform that lays a platform for attackers with malicious activities from unauthorized users targeting the host. VM migration is a target defense mechanism that mitigates the attackers and offers superior VM position management. Moreover, there is an apparent demand to concentrate on security benefits to the VM migration considering cloud system architecture. This research intends to fill the gap using a random VM model to provide the security gap by state action. The security metrics include measuring the attack rate over the random VM field. The simulation is done in the MATLAB 2020a environment with the unavailability measure of VM migration. The major research contributions are the probability of analyzing the attack rate over the configured system and the selection of VM based on attack tolerance level. The outcomes are validated against simulation outcomes to confirm the level of prediction.

Keywords
