A Conceptual Security Framework for Cloud Computing Issues

Abstract

In this article, perspectives from Cloud computing practitioners are shown in order to address clients concerns and bring about awareness of the measures that put in place to ensure software security of the client services running in the Cloud. In addition, the authors have investigated the impacts of a number of the existing approaches and techniques to put a systematic survey of the current software security issues in the Cloud environment. Based on such perspectives and survey, a generic framework conceptually is designed to outline the possible current solutions of software security issues in the Cloud and to present a preferred software security approach to investigate the Cloud research community. As a potential enhancement on the proposed Cloud software security framework, the concepts of fuzzy systems might be used to solve a large numbers of issues in the Cloud security on different framework levels.
