Taxonomy of Challenges in Cloud Security

The world of computing has progressed from centralized (client-server rather than web-based) to distributed systems, and we are now returning to virtual centralization (Cloud Computing). In the world of computation, the location of data and processes makes all the difference. On the one hand, a person has complete control over the data and processes in their machine. The internet is used as a networking tool in cloud computing. When it comes to data protection in cloud computing, the provider must have some assurance in service level agreements (SLAs) to reassure the customer about security concerns. Organizations that use cloud computing as a service platform are keen to look at security and confidentiality concerns for their mission-critical, non-sensitive applications. This paper addresses the fundamentals of cloud computing and security concerns, risks, and solutions. The paper also goes through several open research questions about cloud protection.
