-====== OsmiumVM ======+====== OsmiumVM & ilivm & Sandbox ======
  
-===== Purpose =====+**OsmiumVM** is a reusable Go library for QEMU virtual machine management, providing a clean API for VM lifecycle control, device configuration, and guest interaction.
  
-Easy to use web based virtualization (cloud) platform.+**IliVM** is the IDMS Linux Instant VM application built on top of OsmiumVM, designed for automation with boot detection, SSH integration, and OEM customization support.
  
-===== Features =====+**Osmium Sandbox** is a sandboxing library for confining processes on Linux using Seccomp, Landlock, Linux CAP dropping and Namespaces.
