Abstract:Privacy is an important issue for cloud computing in terms of user trust. Hence, it needs to be considered in its service design. In this study, we investigate the impact of privacy concern on cloud service design in terms of collecting and storing information of users. With an analytical model, we show that, in the presence of privacy concern of users and cloud service firms' difference in their service ability in utilizing users' information for their cloud service, a firm that possesses inferior service ability might choose to demand and require users to input and store user information that include highly private ones, while a firm with superior service ability demands less. An interesting point is that, such competing firms' choosing different privacy policies can further reduce competition between cloud service firms.

“…Consumer choice integrates privacy concerns of an individual with what is available in terms of enhancing the security of online transactions using an economics lens. Chellappa and Shivendu [2007] developed an economic model for on-line privacy, comparing profits, consumer surplus, and social welfare among privacy versus convenience seekers Table 8 provides a summary of the information security research conducted in our basket of nine journals since their date of inception. We also included a brief description of the research methods, theories, and level of analysis for each theme.…”
