Abstract
Cloud computing is proving itself an emerging technology in IT world which provides a novel business model for organizations to utilize softwares, applications and hardware resources without any upfront investment. Few years later with the broad development in mobile applications and advancements in cloud computing, a new expansion is being expected in the form of mobile cloud computing (MCC). MCC provides a platform where mobile users make use of cloud services on mobile devices. The use of MCC minimizes the performance, compatibility, and lack of resources issues in mobile computing environment. Despite the astonishing advancement achieved by MCC, the users of MCC are still below expectations because of the associated risks in terms of security and privacy. These risks are playing important role by preventing the organizations to adopt MCC environment. Significant amount of research is in progress in order to reduce the security concerns but still a lot work has to be done to produce a security prone MCC environment. This paper presents a comprehensive literature review of MCC and its security issues and challenges.
