An Exploration on Cloud Computing Security Strategies and Issues

Cloud computing is revolutionizing many ecosystems by providing organization with computing resources that feature easy connectivity, deployment, automation, and scalability. In the recent past, the attractive features of cloud computing fuel the consolidation of cloud environment in the industry, which has been consequently motivating research on the related technologies by both the academia and industry. Regardless of its advantages, computing paradigm raises security concerns in transition phase, which have subjected several studies. Cloud computing tends to offer scalable on-demand services to the consumer with greater flexibility and lesser infrastructure investment. Since cloud services are delivered using classical network protocols and formats over the Internet, implicit vulnerabilities existing in these protocols as well as threats introduced by newer architectures have raised many security and privacy concerns. In this paper, we have focused on the data security issues found in the cloud computing. In addition to this, we discovered an appropriate solution and a private cloud domain.
