Techniques for identifying tamper-resistant characteristics for kernel data structures are disclosed herein. A set of kernel data structures is received, the set based on an operating system kernel. A plurality of virtual machines are instantiated based on the operating system kernel, each virtual machine of the plurality of virtual machine instances based on one or more modifications to one or more values to the virtual machine, the modifications based on the kernel data structures. Those modifications which cause virtual machine failures indicate which kernel data structures may be tamper-resistant.
