Abstract
Most of the organizations are stuck in a situation to cloudify due to concerns regarding security of sensitive data. Cloud computing provides many aids to the users and organizations in accordance with expenditure and savings. Other than these benefits, cloud computing has some hurdles that result in restriction of it’s usage. Cloud security is the bigger hurdle which is regularly taken into consideration. This paper will give a broad view of major threats challenges in security which are encountered in cloud computing. Cloud computing entities include cloud user, cloud provider, and data owner. The study is carried out based on selection of open-source cloud offerings. This paper can be an exploration tool for any IT person to gain knowledge into security-related risks and challenges which are concerned with cloud computing.
