Information Security in Cloud Computing

Abstract

:-The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) defined cloud computing as a model for enabling convenient, ondemand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or cloud provider interaction. Cloud Computing refers to the following concepts of Grid Computing, Utility Computing, software as a service, storage in the cloud and virtualization. These are termed as a client using a provider's service remotely, known as cloud. Cloud computing has the potential to change how organizations manage information technology and transform the economics of hardware and software at the same time. Cloud computing promised to bring a new set of entrepreneurs who could start their venture with zero investment on IT infrastructure. A principal goal of this paper is to identify privacy and security issues in the distributed environment and concern to cloud computing participants and users .

The Impact of the Application of IT Governance According to (COBIT 5) Framework in Reduce Cloud Computing Risks

“…The issue of electronic cloud security is one of the most controversial issues. Some researchers believe that electronic cloud information management from an internal network that secures information security, others believe that electronic clouds can provide the necessary security to ensure the security and integrity of information (Reddy 2014).…”

Trust management, privacy, authorization, and authentication in cloud computing environments

“…In [21] a trust model that considers behavioral security in Cloud computing is presented. The model focuses on the trust of the service provider to the user and includes the following participants-relationships:…”
