11.5.3 Making Your VM More Secure
There are a couple of things you can do to make your VM more secure.
 Change the Login Credentials
 Add SSH Keys
11.5.4 Changing Login Credentials
When the guest GPU VM is created, the default login credentials are nvidia/nvidia. As a
security practice, use the standard Ubuntu methods to create a new user account and
then delete the nvidia user account from the GPU VM. The basic commands are
provided below for convenience. Consult the Ubuntu/Linux documentation for
additional options.
 Creating a new user account
sudo useradd -m <new-username> -p <new-password>
 Deleting the nvidia user account
deluser -r nvidia
To run virsh commands, the new user must then be added to the libvirt group.
