Cloud computing security or, more simply, cloud security is an evolving sub-domain of computer security, network security, and, more broadly, information security. It refers to a broad set of policies, technologies, and controls deployed to protect data, applications, and the associated infrastructure of cloud computing. Cloud security is not to be confused with security software offerings that are cloud-based such as security as a service. Issues in Security of Cloud Organizations use the Cloud
Uses of Virtualisation in Operating Systems Virtualisation in operating systems is a wide ranging subject relating to many topics within operating systems. Waldspurger and Rosenblum define virtualisation in their article I/O virtualization as “decoupling the logical from the physical, introducing a level of indirection between the abstract and the concrete.” [1] In this essay I will briefly outline some of the many types of Virtualisation as well as talk about benefits and limitations virtualisation
Security and Threats in Cloud Computing Monisha Jayaprakash Seattle Pacific University Abstract Cloud computing has become so famous; there is much widespread news about the cloud these days. This is mainly because of the exponential shift of the business applications from traditional models of software towards the Internet, and now through mobile devices. Cloud computing is a model that uses the network of remote servers that has been hosted on the internet rather than on a specific
Analysis of Virtualization Issues and Security Enhancement Strategies for Cloud Computing Rajagomathi Athisankaranarayanan Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Colorado State University, Fort Collins. shankar_krithika@yahoo.com Abstract—Cloud Computing is a shared Information Technology infrastructure in which computing resources are shared among several systems that are connected together, using a network of servers. This type of resource sharing is facilitated by the Virtualization
fully utilized physical servers, contributing to significant cost savings. Bare-metal hypervisors run directly on server hardware providing the virtual machines a fine-grained timesharing of physical resources. This can be accomplished with hardware such as IBM’s System z Processor Resource System Manager (PR/SM) or through software using VMware ESX Server, Microsoft Hyper-V and the open sourced Xen Hypervisor. PR/SM by IBM works by building the virtualization component directly into the firmware
Virtualization Technology in Cloud Computing Environment Dr. Rajender Nath1, Nidhi2* 1 Professor and Chairperson, Department of Computer Science and Applications, Kurukshetra University, Kurukshetra, Haryana, India. 2 Research Scholar, Department of Computer Science and Applications, Kurukshetra University, Kurukshetra, Haryana, India. Abstract-- In internet era, cloud computing is one of a biggest technology in human hand. Cloud computing helps to overcome the problems of data loss, accessing
Virtualization in Cloud Computing MAY, 2016 Ahmed Essam, Ahmed Khalifa and Anas Ibrahim 26,30,64 Communications and Electronics Department Faculty of Engineering, Alexandria University Abstract – Cloud computing is a type of computing that relies on sharing a pool of physical and/or virtual resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications and services), rather than deploying local or personal hardware and software. This technology is mainly service oriented and focuses on cost reduction
The Next Generation of Virtualization and Software Defined Networking (SDN) The network infrastructure industry is evolving and following a path of first generation server hardware to application-specific servers to virtual machines. The second generation is migrating from function-specific network hardware to software-based virtual functions. Now, software defined networking (SDN) offers nearly infinite economies of scale by replacing expensive networking hardware with software. SDN moves network
centralized administration, storage, and provision of multiple computer systems via a centralized server which hosts compressed image files of the operating systems as well as individual user desktops. The server that preforms this function is called the hypervisor. In this way VDI functions as an infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) architecture that can seamlessly provide computer service to a client which can be as bare bones as a dummy terminal or hearty as a full powered desktop workstation. This capability
