MOBILE CLOUD COMPUTING IN WIRELESS NETWORK AND SECURITY ISSUES
Abstract
This thesis focuses on security issues in the mobile cloud computing in wireless networks. Cloud
computing has been a great approach to the IT field. Various organization has been benefited by
the cloud computing. It is the duty of the mobile cloud environment providers to assure their
customer to enforce certain limitations over the data being shared and the privacy assurance as
well as the transparency degree of the data. The aim of the research is to identify security issues
in mobile computing in wireless networks. There has been many cases reported related to the
data breach and loss in the cloud computing. The solutions to the challenges have been provided
in the research. The research is a complete package of mobile cloud computing and its security
issues and challenges over the wireless networks. The security architecture of mobile cloud
computing have been discussed in the research.
