SECURITY CHALLENGES AND SOLUTIONS ON CLOUD COMPUTING

In the previous couple of years, cloud computing has been included in various fields and industries, from Health Science and Medical to Military Arm forces, which has been scrupulously followed by exploring related multi-technologies within the industry and academic levels. Many enterprises and computing model companies have shifted from on-site or on-premises infrastructure to remote datacenters which is accessible via internet and managed by cloud service providers such as Azure, AWS, Google Cloud, IBM Cloud, etc. However, this drastic shift in computing technology introduces security concerns to individual and enterprise companies. To extend cloud development, Integration and deployment, these security concerns must be rigorously reviewed and addressed. Cloud computing is defined as a brand new technology to deliver services within the name of cloud or remote through internet. This technology transformed over traditional data processing system to store large amount of data. Cloud computing provides the user the ability to access information anytime from anywhere remotely. Cloud is definitely useful for business that might not afford for hardware and maintenance team to work by 24 hours to keep the business alive. Because the data is within the cloud stored in various places not locally or company’s private area. The data will be exposed for attacking from hackers and business enemies. In this paper, I tried to demonstrate the security challenges and issues caused by nowadays industries, while addressing various key topics such as vulnerabilities, threats and mitigations, and cloud models.
