Cloud computing clouts several technologies such as virtualization, SOA, and Web 2.0, it is also claimed their security risk matters. In this paper, the most serious and important risks and threats of cloud computing are discussed. The main vulnerability is identifying through a review of the published works on the cloud computing environment with possible solutions to overcome these threats and risks.
