Investigational Analysis of Security Measures Effectiveness in Cloud Computing: A Study

In the modern era of business operation, the technical adoption of cloud services are high on rise by the large scale to small scale business establishment on various products and services. Needless to say that with the rise of adoption also gives birth to security concerns as cloud runs on common internet which are also used by trillions of internet-users. There are various means by which introducing a malicious program inside the cloud is not that complicated task for attacker. The various services providers as well as past researcher have introduced some of the potential security features which is claimed to be highly effective. However, accomplishing fail-proof security systems in cloud is never witnessed nor reported by any user or researcher, which clearly specifies that security problems do persist and are on exponential rise. Therefore, this paper discusses about the security issues in cloud supported by brief description of standard security models currently available in cloud. With extensive literatures on the existing security solutions, a significant research gap is explored in robust authentication system in cloud services.
