Introduction I selected a paper named “Cloud Computing Security Threats and Responses” by “Farzad Sabahi”. In this paper he summarizes reliability, availability, and security issues for cloud computing (RAS issues), and propose feasible and available solutions for some of t hem. And he discusses cloud security issues and finally he tries to find solutions for against cloud security problems Internet has been developing very rapidly in wide range. It has become available and accessible for everyone. However, other issues such as storage size, the power consumed by equipment and hardware cost have been constantly increasing. The storage space in data center is no longer meeting our increasing demands. The innovation of cloud computing has emerged in an attempt to solve these and other environmental problems. This make software even more attractive as a service and shaping the way hardware is designed and purchased. According to Architectural requirements for cloud computing systems: An enterprise cloud approach, “The overarching goal of Cloud Computing is to provide on-demand computing services with high reliability, scalability, and availability in distributed environments. Despite this common goal, Cloud Computing has been described in many different ways and no standard definition has been adopted until now.” Why Security is very important? security risk management and solutions within cloud computing should be studied very well and in wide range to address these
Organizations use the Cloud in a variety of different service models (SaaS, PaaS, IaaS) and deployment models (Private, Public, Hybrid). There are a number of security issues/concerns associated with cloud computing but these issues fall into two broad categories: Security issues faced by cloud providers (organizations providing software-, platform-, or infrastructure-as-a-service via the cloud) and security issues faced by their customers.In most cases, the provider must ensure that their infrastructure is secure and that their clients’ data and applications are protected while the customer must ensure that the provider has taken the proper security measures to protect their information.
We would like to provide the benefits of cloud computing without any troubles to propel in the direction it is designed for. This is to be achieved by preventing the owner's data from all risks associated and providing a cloud model that is more secure and efficient. The proposed model shall overcome the security risks defined by the security functions over cloud computing, as follows in (Passent M. et al., 2015):
The Important of Cloud Computing is increasing and it is receiving a growing attention in Scientific & Industrial Communities. Cloud computing is one of the top 10 most important technologies and has a greater possibility in successive years by companies and organizations. Cloud computing implement everywhere, favourable, on demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g. networks, servers, storage, applications and servers) that can be immediately supply and released with minimal management effort.
Cloud computing security is a set of control based technologies and policies that must follow certain rules in order to protect applications, data and any information associated with cloud computing. It is known to provide excellent services but is still not supported by organizations due to privacy issues that includes security and privacy protection. As they obstruct the managers as well as the
Cloud computing is defined by Cearly and Phifer in their case study titled “Case Studies in Cloud Computing” as “a style of computing in which scalable and elastic IT-related capabilities are provided ‘ as a service’ to customers using Internet technologies”. Cloud computing services had been provided by major vendors such as Google, Amazon, Microsoft, IBM, Hewlett-Packard, and others for business computing until recently when Apple Corporation announced iCloud for consumers. Therefore, cloud computing is now available for businesses as well as consumers. Read the case study titled, “ Ericsson”, located here, about Ericsson cloud computing.
Usage of remote servers via internet to store, manage and process data instead of using a personal computer is known as Cloud computing. It’s a set of Information Technology services with the ability to scale up or down their service requirements. Most of the cloud services are provided by a third party service provider. In cloud computing, organizations can utilize IT services without in advance investment. Despite its benefits obtained from the cloud computing, the organizations are slow in accepting it due to security issues and challenges. Security is one of the major problems which hinder the growth of cloud. It’s not wise to handing over the important data to another company; such that clients need to be vigilant in understanding the risks of data infringement in this new environment. This paper discusses a detailed analysis of the cloud computing security issues and challenges. (Ayoleke)
There would various security issues to cloud computing Concerning illustration it includes Numerous innovations including networks, databases, operating systems, virtualization, asset scheduling, transaction management, load balancing, concurrency control and memory administration. Therefore, security issues to a significant number of these frameworks and innovations would relevant to cloud computing. For example, those system that interconnects the frameworks to a cloud need to be secure. Furthermore, virtualization standard clinched
Whenever an examination about cloud security is occurred there will be particularly to accomplish for it. The cloud service provider for cloud ensures that the client does not confront any issue, for example, loss of information or data theft. Likewise, there is a probability where a harmful user can infiltrate the cloud by claiming a authorized user, there by infecting the whole cloud. This prompts to influences numerous clients who are sharing the contaminated cloud. There are four sorts of issues raise while examining security of a cloud.
Cloud technology innovation is emerging as one of the most popular issue for most IT practitioners and cloud computing is thought of as the future trend of development of the IT industry. According to Stanoevska (2010), enterprises should have an IT infrastructure that can reform itself rapidly to new business priorities. Cloud computing technologies, such as Cloud mail, Cloud platform and Cloud software services, provide an efficient work platform for enterprises. At the same time, Carling (2011) puts forward potential problematic issues in terms of the security of cloud computing. The future of enterprise cloud computing becomes increasingly controversial. Nevertheless, enterprises should base their future framework for Information and
Cloud computing security or also known as cloud security talks about a broad set of technologies, policies and controls deployed to protect applications, data, and the corresponding infrastructure of cloud computing. The cloud is a great invention to allow high capacity storage of data but without the cost to allow sharing of resources in a quick and timely manner. With technology becoming advanced in such a short amount time, new steps must be created to protect people information from being hacked. Hacker’s mission is determined by greed, anger, or request to damage their victims and the organization they might be a part. No one can actually stop all the potential vulnerabilities from being breached, but the provider and clients
IT industry being one of the major development areas, many people choose their career in it. To support all range of industries i.e., from small scale to large scale, cloud computing emerged which reduces the efforts both physically and with regard to capital investment.
Abstract – The idea of cloud computing was first introduced in the sixties. Today, cloud computing is widely used in everyday life. There are many advantages to cloud computing but with everything in life there are always disadvantages. This research will focus on how the dependability of cloud computing holds up with all the new evolving changes and updates to the cloud computing service.
This report revolves around the topic of Cloud computing, Cloud computing software to be exact. For the purpose of this report information was gathered from various sources including electronic data, books, online journals and the World Wide Web. The topic of cloud computing software consists of an introduction which gives a brief history about the cloud, as well as the definitions of some key terms responsible for the growth of cloud computing as we know it today. It then goes on to define and discuss the types of cloud deployment methods also known as the different ways of approaching the cloud. They are the public, community, private and hybrid cloud. The next section then again defines and discusses the three main cloud delivery models
Cloud computing is an emerging technology these days. Cloud computing is the development of distributed , parallel ,grid computing and virtualization technologies.In this paper,we actually explore the architecture of cloud computing as well as we explore distributed , grid and utility computing. We also address the several popular cloud computing platforms. In this paper, we aim to point the risks of cloud computing. We identified several challenges from the cloud computing adoption perspective. However, the biggest concern i.e.security and privacy issues are the strongest barrier for the users to adapt into cloud computing systems. In this paper, we investigate several cloud computing platforms and its architecture and risks.
In analysis, the data will be studied with the aim of trying to understand the risks in order to mitigate the risks or to minimize the existing risks in the cloud computing system. The objective is to extract the useful information from the analysis of the data collected during the course of the study, which will help in creating resolutions to the issues that surface regarding cloud computing security.
