To identify the main challenges and security issues of virtualization in cloud computing environments. It reviews the alleviation techniques for improving the security of cloud virtualization systems. Methods/ Statistical Analysis: Virtualization is a fundamental technology for cloud computing, and for this reason, any cloud vulnerabilities and threats affect virtualization. In this study, the systematic literature review is performed to find out thevulnerabilitiesandrisksofvirtualizationincloudcomputingandtoidentifythreats,andattacksresultfromthose vulnerabilities.Furthermore,wediscoverandanalyzetheeffectivemitigationtechniquesthatareusedtoprotect,secure, andmanagevirtualizationenvironments.Findings:Thirtyvulnerabilitiesareidentified,explained,andclassifiedinto six proposed classes. Furthermore, fifteen main virtualization threats and attacks are defined according to exploited vulner abilities in a cloud environment. Application/Improvements: A set of common mitigation solutions are recognized and discovered to alleviate the virtualization security risks. These reviewed techniques are analyzed and evaluated according to five specified security criteria.
