SECURITY ISSUES IN CLOUD COMPUTING :A SURVEY

Abstract

Cloud Computing is one of the popular and rapidly increasing technology in today’s world. It provides on demand services to customer and also gives metered service. Cloud computing also has a connection with grid computing and utility computing. The cloud data is stored on remote servers and it can be accessed from anywhere anytime. The system is vulnerable to security risk and performance therefore security is identified as one of the major challenges in cloud computing. This paper has done state of the art survey about security issues identified by the researchers and methods to solve those issues.  In this paper we have discussed the various security challenges of cloud computing and the solutions to mitigate those challenges.
