“…Nicol [46], suggest a 'societal' mechanism for identifying trust relations in the cloud. The proposed approach identifies the dependencies between cloud entities and the sources of evidence for trusting each entity.…”

“…software applications) from a certain provider running on a cloud infrastructure that is provided by another provider, who might as well lease processing and storage capacity from other service providers. Apart from cloud providers and users, additional intermediary entities may be involved in the trust chain such as cloud brokers and cloud auditors, i.e., entities who conduct assessment of cloud services [43,46]. Understanding the trust relationships between the cloud entities involved is essential in order to establish that a cloud service will deliver the required privacy mechanisms needed to assure the privacy requirements of the cloud user.…”

Bridging the gap between design and implementation stages has been a major concern of designers, analysts and developers of information systems and a major aspiration of a number of Information System (IS) engineering approaches. Cloud computing exacerbates the strain on traditional IS engineering approaches that service-oriented computing has started. At the same time, recent research has argued about the importance of security and privacy in a cloud environment and highlighted a number of security and privacy challenges that are not present in traditional environments and need special attention when implementing or migrating information systems into a cloud environment. This paper contributes to this direction. Specifically, it presents a number of privacy-related cloud properties that analysts need to consider when designing privacy-aware systems in a cloud environment. Also it indicates a number of implementation techniques that can assist developers in assuring the respective properties.

It is common to hear that big or small organizations are moving to cloud computing for its scalability and cost savings. But, how do you decide which cloud provider to trust? Trust is a vital factor, especially for service oriented systems in the area of Information Technology and Security. Several issues have been raised by enterprises and individuals concerning the reliability of the cloud resources. In cloud computing, trust helps the consumer to choose the service of a cloud service provider for storing and processing their sensitive information. In this paper, a methodical literature analysis of trust management and existing trust models is presented to evaluate trust based on various QoS parameters. Key research issues and future research directions in existing literature are also suggested.

“…Similarly, another approach is recommended in [5] to prefer trustable cloud service providers by using parameters such as auditability and interoperability. Various mechanisms for trust assessment are explained in [6]. It further explains the association between individual components of cloud environment for measuring trust.…”
