Security Issues in Cloud Computing
Analysing Various Security Aspects of Web and Mobile Cloud Computing
Abstract
In this paper, we have discussed security issues for web and mobile cloud computing. Cloud computing provides Internet-based services, computing, and storage for users in all markets including financial, healthcare, and government. This new approach to computing allows users to avoid upfront hardware and software investments, gain flexibility, collaborate with others, and take advantage of the sophisticated services that cloud providers offer. However, security is a huge concern for cloud users. Mobile cloud computing could be defined as – the availability of cloud computing services in a mobile ecosystem. This includes many elements like consumer, enterprise, transcending, end to end security, home gateways and mobile broadband enabled services. Also since the terms ‘mobile’ and ‘wireless’ are used interchangeably, now consider here Mobile – ‘anywhere anytime’ and wireless is ‘without wires’. Thus mobile is ‘wireless’. Hence, we are talking of ‘anywhere anytime secure data accesses to analyze the security risks confronted by mobile computing and present the existing security mechanisms. Cloud computing is the next generation of networking, since it can deliver both software and hardware as on demand resources and services over the Internet. Clearly, Security is major issue in cloud computing.
