Maybe you will use another messenger, this is not a significant aspect. I use Telegram, as it is convenient and secure, you can transfer data with p2p encryption (secret chats), in addition, you can send pretty large files. The second option is interaction via messenger. Definitely, there is a chance that they will somehow force you to run the compromised file from the cloud on the main machine, but I hope you will not make such a childish mistake. Or it would be even better to have a separate cloud storage account exclusively for this purpose.Īll what a malefactor can get access to your virtual machine is to upload or delete any files in the cloud storage. The first option I recommend as an alternative is to organize the interaction of the host and guest machines through cloud storage, giving the virtual machine access to one of the folders on Google Drive, Yandex.Disk or Dropbox. Tip Get rid of shared folders, shared clipboard and Drag’n’Drop.Īccording to my statistics, 85% of the tools for going beyond the virtual environment of VirtualBox required the presence of VirtualBox Guest Additions and related functionality.
I hope you will follow my recommendation, believe me, I am quite familiar with the methodology of going beyond the virtual environment and know how dangerous these tools are. I have to introduce these tools to you, although for security reasons I don’t want to teach you how to use them and I am ready to offer another solution for the interaction between the host and guest systems. The shared clipboard allows you to copy and paste files from a host machine to a virtual one and vice versa, while Drag’n’Drop generally allows you to drag files from one system to another easily. Have you never used these tools, in a nutshell: a shared folder is an option that creates a folder on a computer to files, which both the virtual machine and the host can access to. For sure, the average user will study this issue on the Internet, where they will find information about such wonderful and convenient tools as the shared folder, the shared clipboard and Drag’n’Drop, which are in the VirtualBox Guest Additions. Users periodically need to upload files to the virtual machine from the main one (or vice versa to the main machine from the virtual one), for example, to launch a suspicious file or a link in an isolated environment.
