Abstract
Cloud computing offers many benefits including enhanced flexibility, disaster recovery, free capital expenditures, automatic software updates, sustainability, and work anytime, anywhere. In addition, many other features and services can be offered to customers. However, cloud computing still suffers many threats which may cause vulnerabilities. Therefore, today many organizations are still hesitant to adopt cloud computing because of fear for privacy of their data and confidentiality. Understanding and addressing security threats are a prerequisite for unleashing the huge potential of cloud computing. In this study, a survey is conducted on some cloud service providers and users to explore security threats and vulnerabilities in cloud computing experienced by many organizations in Iraq. Consequently, many countermeasures are proposed. Descriptive research methodology is adopted in this research. The results of the study showed that privacy, confidentiality, control of data are the main obstacle to cloud computing adoption.
Highlights
The entrepreneurial career selection behaviour in entrepreneurship through entrepreneurial education is one of the ways to create perceptions and equip individuals with strong entrepreneurial knowledge and skills (Henderson and Robertson, 2000); (Ishak Hj Abdul Rahman et al, 2006)); (Robertson et al, 2003)
This is parallel with the study of Nor Aishah Buang dan Ruhizan Mohd Yassin (2008) which found that too few entrepreneurship courses were given to students from majors such as engineering majors and science majors. They are not given the opportunity to pursue entrepreneurial education. This opinion was supported by the study conducted by which states that there are only four public higher education institutions offering entrepreneurial courses for students at the Faculty of Engineering not included in Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM), and Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka (UTeM)
General Hypothesis (H05.1): “There is no significant difference in the level of entrepreneurship intention of engineering students in UTM, UTHM, and UTeM based on entrepreneurship education”
Summary
The entrepreneurial career selection behaviour in entrepreneurship through entrepreneurial education is one of the ways to create perceptions and equip individuals with strong entrepreneurial knowledge and skills (Henderson and Robertson, 2000); (Ishak Hj Abdul Rahman et al, 2006)); (Robertson et al, 2003). Formal and informal entrepreneurial education is an initial inventory of individual development that is necessary for those who want to become an entrepreneur (Kuratko, 2009); (Zaidatol, 2010). The incentives for entrepreneurship are in line with statistics from the Department of Statistics, Malaysia which shows an increase in the number of unemployed graduates at 3.1 percent and has given significant challenges to higher education institutions (Nor Hafiza and Binti Othman, 2012); (Marcela et al, 2012); (Ioana Panc et al, 2012); (Nihan et al, 2012); (Nor Fadhilah Nasharudin and Halimah Harun, 2010); (Salmah et al, 2009); (Nor Aishah Buang dan Ruhizan Mohd Yassin, 2008); (Hoe Chee Hee, 2006); (Nor Aishah Buang et al, 2005) to develop quality graduates and have a variety of skills. In order to increase the intention of engineering graduates to venture into entrepreneurship, this study is conducted to identify the significant differences in the entrepreneurial intention level of final year students and to identify whether there is a significant relationship between entrepreneurial intentions and entrepreneurship career behavior
