Cloud Computing Security Solution: Emerging Technologies & Innovation

This report provides an overview of cloud-based security solutions, analyzing security issues in cloud computing derived from recent research. It highlights the basic services cloud computing offers, the threats it faces, and proposed solutions to minimize these issues. The report emphasizes the importance of information control and connectivity, discussing security issues such as data breaches, fake APIs, and malware injection. Proposed solutions include operational and organizational security measures, data security strategies, threat evasion techniques, safe access protocols, and privacy enhancements, exemplified by Google's security practices. The conclusion underscores the significance of the overall analysis in addressing security challenges in cloud computing.

Introduction
• The cloud computing is the process which involves the storing and
accessing of the data over internet rather than computer network.
• The series of networks that are handles data over internet is
estimated to be 5.4 billion dollars globally (Sadeghi, Wachsmann &
Waidner, 2015)
• Cloud security are the service provider that provides the users to
access the data through secure channels without opening the firewall
ports.

System Overview Data
Flow
The diagram shows the data flow and
the working of the computer system in
cloud computing .

Research Issues
The security fails that have been observed in the recent years are
recorded are stated as follows.
• Data breach
• Unknown risk profile
• Shared technology issues
• Malware
• Account or service hacking or hijacking
• Denial of the services

Information Flow Control
• It is the effective mechanism that is used to ensure the policy
requirements for data protection and security regulations. The
information flow control is used to maintain
• Transparency
• Data Erasure
• Purpose specification

Connectivity
• The interaction of the on
premises environment and the
public domain is called cloud
connectivity (Kalaiprasath,
Elankavi & Udayakumar, 2017).
• It provides end to end
execution for the connectivity
to the cloud.
• Facilitate the data storage
• Provide better user interface

Information Flow Control
Security Issues
• Data breach
• Fake API
• Denial of services
• Cloud bleed
• SQl injections

Cloud Connectivity Security
Issues
• Malware injection
• High network latency
• Misconfiguration
• Lack of testing
• Lack of Monitoring

Security Interaction Model

Proposed Solution for the
Security Issues
The security issues in the cloud can be minimized by implementing
them over following fields (Chatzigiannakis, Vitaletti & Pyrgelis,
2016).
• Operational and Organizational Security
• Data Security
• Threat evasion
• Safe Access
• Privacy

Experimental Analysis of the
Proposed Solutions
• The Google have taken few security practices in order to minimise the
security issues considering all the fields
• organizational and operational security -avoiding local storage , giving
verified accessibility, hiring a new team for security and screening and
training the employees about new approaches to persisting threats
(Colombo et al., 2014).
• Privacy- safe access, maintaining own IP address, denial to access user
data.
• Data security-Physical security, reduncacy,following new code of
Conduct “ Don’t be evil’.

Continued ..
• Threat evasion-Protection against network attacks, provide network
protection against spam and virus protection.
