Periodic Security Checks

This blueprint is related to the new Nova feature proposed in https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/periodic-security-checks/

Changes have been made in Nova to allow administrator of OpenStack add periodic security checks against the hardware computing nodes. For example, administrator could add static file integrity check or dynamic memory check to verify that OpenStack services are running good known code.

This blueprint is to provide access to that functionality to users through command-line and Horizon. Administrator would be able to add and remove checks, schedule time of execution, and set timeout for each check.

For more information, see the referenced Nova design specification.
