Cloud and its features are attracting mass communities towards itself. The reason for the same is cheap and the best possible resources are available on a shared basis. Tools and techniques are required to manage the resources over the cloud. Open-Stack provides this functionality. This paper presents the demonstration of two most commonly used network management tools including NOVA and SNMP. The work highlights the advantages and disadvantages along with the architecture of each. The comparative analysis highlights the main features present within each tool. It is discovered that security is a concern associated with both the tools. The investigation of NOVA and SNMP suggests that the SNMP mechanism is better as compared to NOVA. This is cheaper and light-weighted to manage resources over the network. The paper is comprehensive and comparative analysis is presented in tabular format. Characteristics and commands to use these tools are also given in this paper. Keywords NOVA • SNMP • Network management toolsThis article is part of the topical collection "Advances in Computational Approaches for Artificial Intelligence, Image Processing, IoT and Cloud Applications" guest edited by Bhanu Prakash K N and M. Shivakumar.

The main concern for the customers and the organizations to use services offered by Cloud computing providers is the confidentiality and security of the data stored using the sharable infrastructure. Customers also want to use the support provided by the service providers according to their application requirements, which leads to the configuration of the infrastructure provided to the customers as per their requirements.Most of the cloud computing services provided are rigid and do not allow customers to make changes. Users have options to use Open source-based cloud computing systems such as OpenStack, but these platforms to suffer from various weaknesses especially exposing the vulnerabilities attacked. OpenStack open-source cloud computing systems are frequently being used by many users who want to build a cloud computing infrastructure on their own for either private or public purposes.A dedicated component "Keystone" of OpenStack used for providing security to the resources provisioned and used by the users through processes that are related to authentication, authorization, access control and data security. Keystone uses Ferment Tokens for Authentication and Authorization which exposes much vulnerability. Many authentication systems are in use such as Active Directory System, Integrated Management System etc. The use of such order within the Cloud Computing Architecture helps to implement a high level of security to the user programs and Data.Multi-Factor systems used for implementing high-level security which takes benefit of two authentication systems which are interconnected, while one system being native, the other could be an external authentication system such as ADDS or IMS. In this paper, a Multi-factor based authentication system implemented that focuses on integrating the "Keystone" based authentication system achieved within OpenStack, and Integrated identity Management System applied within the RED Hat Operating System.

Many cloud computing systems are in place for providing different kinds of services, which include AWS, AZURE, Google Cloud, etc. which are proprietary. These clouds help the users implement their own IT requirements, but the users cannot configure or customize the cloud computing processes as per their needs, especially to handle the issue of security from the perspectives of authentication, access control, and data security.Open source cloud computing systems, which include Eucalyptus, Open Nebula, open stack, etc. allows the changes carried to the cloud computing systems primarily through configuration, the addition of API, the addition of processes, etc. Users can make changes to affect the system such that it works as per the user requirements, especially to improve the security system built into the cloud computing system, which sometimes found to be vulnerable for attack. Users are concerned about the security of their software data hosted on third-party IT infrastructure. Open Stack cloud computing platform is being used by many for implementing private clouds. Users can customize open stack as per their requirements.Open stack suffers from many security-related vulnerabilities that can be exploited by the users for attacking the user software and data. A review of the Open stack systems is required to find the gaps that are existing to plug the same. In this paper, a review of the Open stack presented, bringing out different kinds of vulnerabilities that exist in authenticating the users and a federation method using JSON tokens showed that help eliminating the Vulnerabilities existing in the open stack for enforcing security within the Keystone module of Open stack.
