Cloud computing has been envisioned as the next generation architecture of IT enterprise. Cloud shared infrastructure&associated services make it cost-effective alternative to the traditional approaches. However this new approach may also introduce new security breaches&privacy issues.

Many research works on cloud security exists in partial forms. In this paper an attempt has been made to consolidate the various threats in a classified manner and to illustrate how these vulnerabilities affect the different cloud computing service models.

Abstract


Cloud computing has been envisioned as the next generation architecture of IT enterprise. Cloud shared infrastructure&associated services make it cost-effective alternative to the traditional approaches. However this new approach may also introduce new security breaches&privacy issues.

Many research works on cloud security exists in partial forms. In this paper an attempt has been made to consolidate the various threats in a classified manner and to illustrate how these vulnerabilities affect the different cloud computing service models.
