International Journal of Security and Its Applications, 2017

Cloud computing is a model which pays to easy availability, distributed and comprehensive aggregation computing resources and configurable common computing. In cloud computing, abilities based on information technology can be accessible as the service that doesn't need accurate knowledge based on structural technologies and with less management effort. Regarding to this, one of the most important issues will be the security issue for novel technologies. So we tried to review these security affairs and we emphasize that even there are several security enhancement approaches, but a comprehensive cloud computing approach should be presented in IT world. Availability of data and information privacy and services in cloud computing area cannot solve the security of cloud computing and new strategies and technologies should be used together for protection of total system. The data security and privacy issue in cloud environment is more important rather than the usual network because the information in cloud computing environment is significantly related to the network and server. In this regard these problems had been caught up the enhancement in cloud computing area and also security affairs are considered as the main problem.

Cloud computing is a business model with flexible resource allocation on demand, Internet-accessible, computing on a pay-per-use as utilities. Cloud computing has grown to provide a promising business concept for computing infrastructure, where concerns are beginning to grow about how safe an environment it is. Security is one of the major issues in cloud computing environment. The aim of this paper is, to address the security, privacy and trust challenges of cloud computing, and we proposed some solutions by analyzing the technological, operational and legal issues of cloud computing, taking into consideration of cloud customers.

Cloud computing is still in its infancy in spite of gaining tremendous momentum recently, high security is one of the major obstacles for opening up the new era of the long dreamed vision of computing as a utility. As the sensitive applications and data are moved into the cloud data centers, run on virtual computing resources in the form of virtual machine. This unique attributes, however, poses many novel tangible and intangible security challenges. It might be difficult to track the security issue in cloud computing environments. So this paper primarily aims to highlight the major security, privacy and trust issues in current existing cloud computing environments and help users recognize the tangible and intangible threats associated with their uses, which includes: (a) surveying the most relevant security, privacy and trust issues that pose threats in current existing cloud computing environments; and (b) analyzing the way that may be addressed to eliminate these potential privacy, security and trust threats, and providing a high secure, trustworthy, and dependable cloud computing environment. In the near future, we will further analysis and evaluate privacy, security and trust issues in cloud computing environment by a quantifiable approach, further develop and deploy a complete security, privacy trust evaluation, management framework on really cloud computing environments.
