Data Controlling and Security Issues in Cloud

Abstract

Cloud computing has been the most demanding technology in the last decade, which several organizations have widely adopted. Most enterprise applications and data are migrated to the public or hybrid cloud due to the ease of access and infrastructure facilities provided by the cloud provider. One significant issue in the cloud environment is the security and data controlling mechanism, which needs to be focused on for better service quality. Users usually hesitate to use public cloud services due to privacy and security concerns about the personal data they want to process online. Unlike standard cloud computing notions, serverless computing does not expose the infrastructure or platforms on which the services operate to the end-user. Clients only have to worry about the application's business logic, and the service provider usually takes care of everything, including configuration, infrastructure provision, servers, etc. In this chapter, the authors have discussed several cloud computing issues regarding data security and data controlling mechanisms.
