Security Analysis in Cloud

Abstract

Cloud computing has reformed the businesses ways and provides the facilities to the people to store, get, and handle information by providing scalable and flexible computing resources. However, the rapid adoption of cloud services has introduced the security challenges that cause noteworthy dangers for confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive information. These challenges include issues such as data breaches, loss of control over data, insecure interfaces and APIs, account hijacking, and inadequate access controls. Additionally, the multi-tenant environment of the cloud environments, where numerous users utilize shared resources, increases the chance of unauthorized access and data leakage. This paper investigates the various safety challenges in cloud computing, examines current threats and vulnerabilities, and discusses potential solutions and best practices to mitigate risks. It emphasizes the need for robust security frameworks, encryption techniques, identity and access management strategies, and compliance with relevant standards to ensure the safe use of cloud services.
