Theft in virtualization: Unauthorized access, use, or transference of virtual resources. It can encompass a range of malicious activities, from stealing virtual machines, data, or processing power to misusing virtual networks for illicit activities. This form of theft is a particular concern due to the scalability and dynamism of virtual environments, as illicit activities can be easily replicated or hidden within the complex and often distributed virtual infrastructure.
