“…However, given clouds' public availability, security and privacy have become important concerns in public CC (European Network and Information Security Agency, 2011;Jansen and Grance, 2011). Private clouds are 'easier to align with security, compliance, and regulatory requirements [than public clouds]' (Ramgovind et al, 2010: 2), but they offer fewer benefits, for example, in terms of cost reduction and scalability. Mixed forms of private and public clouds aim to combine the benefits of both public and private clouds.…”

Cloud computing (CC) is an emerging form of IT outsourcing (ITO) that requires organizations to adjust their sourcing processes. Although ITO researchers have established an extensive knowledge base on the determinant factors that drive sourcing decisions from various theoretical perspectives, the majority of research on cloud-sourcing decisions focuses on technological aspects. We reviewed the CC and ITO literature and systematically coded the determinant factors that influence sourcing decisions. We show that most determinant factors of sourcing decisions in the ITO context remain valid for the CC context. However, the findings for some factors (i.e., asset specificity, client firm IT capabilities, client firm size, institutional influences, and uncertainty) are inconclusive for the CC and ITO contexts. We discuss how the peculiarities of CC can explain these inconclusive findings. Our results indicate that CC researchers should draw from research on ITO decision making but re-examine ITO concepts in the light of the peculiarities of CC, such as the differences between software and infrastructure services, the self-service procurement of cloud services, or the evolving role of IT departments. By summarizing determinant factors of cloud-sourcing decisions for consideration in future research, we contribute to the development of endogenous theories in the IS domain.

Abstract-Cloud computing is an arrangement of InformationTechnology administrations offered to clients over the web on a leased base. Such administrations empower the associations to scale-up or downsize their in-house establishments. By and large, cloud administrations are given by an outside supplier who has the game plan. Cloud computing has numerous focal points, for example, adaptability, productivity, versatility, combination, and capital lessening. In addition, it gives a progressed virtual space for associations to convey their applications or run their operations. With dismissal to the conceivable advantages of Cloud computing administrations, the associations are hesitant to put resources into Cloud computing chiefly because of security concerns. Security in Cloud computing is an essential and basic angling that upset the development of Cloud computing, and has various issues and issue identified with it. Cloud administration supplier and the cloud administration purchaser ought to ensure that the cloud is sufficiently sheltered from all the outer dangers so that the client does not confront any issue, for example, loss of information or information burglary. There is likewise a probability where a noxious client can infiltrate the cloud by mimicking a real client, along these lines tainting the whole cloud and influences numerous clients who are sharing the contaminated cloud. This paper firstly records the parameters that influence the security of the cloud then it investigates the cloud security issues and issues confronted by cloud administration supplier and cloud administration customer, for example, information, protection, and contaminated application and security issues. It likewise plates a few tips for handling these issues.

Cloud computing is a key enabling technology for fast wide-area networks and it has more powerful server computers. Cloud operates on a high-performance virtualization. Cloud provides wide range of users like individuals, businesses and governments to provide virtual resources such as CPUs, memory, hard drives, bandwidth, platforms, and applications in an on-demand environment. Every day, the data is growing at a rapid rate in enterprises. To store data, a large number of processing units, hard drives, network infrastructure and other resources are required. Cloud satisfies this entire computational requirement to any enterprises by its infrastructure, but, at the same time, cloud is step-down by some of the security related issues. Maintaining confidentiality of data in the cloud is the most important security issue. This paper describes the cloud computing architecture, data management in cloud environment and data confidentiality issue in cloud. Cloud has many issues among that security is the top most issue. This paper opens the confidentiality problem in cloud data storage and also helps the researcher to kick start their research to address data confidentiality issues in the cloud environment.
