Identifies instances where VMware processes, such as "vmware-vmx" or "vmx," are terminated on a Linux system

The presence of a "kill" command as the parent process for terminating VMware processes may indicate that a
threat actor is attempting to interfere with the virtualized environment on the targeted system.
