INTRODUCTION
Cloud computing provides on-demand system services without specific active user
control, particularly the storage and processing capacity of data (Rittinghouse and Ransome,
2016). The term is used commonly to identify data centers for other web users. This is very
useful for users in order to store data in an effective manner. Each technique has some issues and
benefits. Same as cloud computing also has some problems such as risk of data theft, security
issues and many more. In the project report an essay is mentioned on the topic named as” Issues
in cloud computing”.
MAIN BODY
In this aspect of essay, key issues of cloud computing is mentioned in detailed manner which is
as follows:
According to M. Jouini and Rabai (2014), Security risks related to virtualization, software
vulnerabilities, system bugs, data leaks, authentication issues and privacy issues are the key
challenges identified with cloud computing. To resolve the above issues, there are different
methods such as the use of veracity, stronger software for replication and strong usernames to
eliminate safety violations. Good internal functionality from the client is also important to
provide the end user with protection (Singh, Jeong and Park, 2016). They may enhance
protection for consumers by adopting the above techniques. Eventually, security issues are
needed to be cleared as soon as possible because any delay in this aspect may lead to customer
dissatisfaction.
According to Khan, Oriol, Kiran, Jiang and Djemame (2012), there are various kinds of dangers
involved with the usage of cloud storage. It primarily focuses on the identification and theft of
extremely sensitive data and threats happening externally from server to device during data
transmission (Tabassam, 2017). There are different techniques for evaluating the risks involved
in the transfer of data before granting the consumer access and the usage of tools which can
