Case Study of Cloud Computing Security and Emerging Security Research Challenges

Abstract

In this technological era, cloud computing is bombarded with immense benefits that includes availability, flexibility, ubiquitary access, and cost effectiveness. Cloud Computing offers its services to different kinds of users with the help of the World Wide Web on the virtual platform regardless of devices. Hence, all the resources kept on the same-shared storage device, which will lead to a considerable rise in various cloud security concerns for both; user and their private information. Data privacy can be compromised with a broad usage of cloud as smaller companies to bigger ones are adapting this versatile system. This paper examines several recent security attacks and proposed solutions of secure cloud computing from the perspective of organizations. Threat action varieties, other attacks with date, information exposed and number of record breach is presented with IT attack at risk. Finally, we have presented research challenges that can be worth noticing.
