A Comprehensive Review on Data Security and Threats for Data Management in Cl...AJASTJournal
The cloud is a network of virtual computers that are linked together and may exhibit and offer computational capabilities continuously depending on certain Service Level Agreements (SLAs) that have been agreed between the parties to a contract between the clients and the internet provider. Cloud computing has several benefits, including endless computational resources, cheap cost, security controls, hypervisor protection, instantaneous elasticity, high throughput, and fault-tolerant solutions with increased performance. Since cloud computing is a comparatively recent computing model, there exists a lot of uncertainty about how well confidentiality of all levels, including host, network, data levels, and implementation, can be achieved. As a result, there still are important obstacles to cloud computing adoption. These constraints include security issues concerning privacy, compliance, and legal issues. When databases and software applications are moved from the cloud to large data centers, data management becomes a major challenge. Numerous security issues may develop while using cloud computing, including issues with privacy and control, virtualization and accessibility issues, confidentiality, management of credentials and identities, authentication of responding devices, and authenticity. In this paper, an effort is made to offer a comprehensive review of data security and threats in cloud computing.

Abstract—Cloud computing has elevated IT to newer limits
by offering the market environment data storage and capacity
with flexible scalable computing processing power to match
elastic demand and supply, whilst reducing capital expenditure.
However the opportunity cost of the successful implementation of
Cloud computing is to effectively manage the security in the
cloud applications. Security consciousness and concerns arise as
soon as one begins to run applications beyond the designated
firewall and move closer towards the public domain. The purpose
of the paper is to provide an overall security perspective of Cloud
computing with the aim to highlight the security concerns that
should be properly addressed and managed to realize the full
potential of Cloud computing. Gartner’s list on cloud security
issues, as well the findings from the International Data
Corporation enterprise panel survey based on cloud threats, will
be discussed in this paper.

I. INTRODUCTION
The success of modern day technologies highly depends on
its effectiveness of the world’s norms, its ease of use by end
users and most importantly its degree of information security
and control. Cloud computing is a new and emerging
information technology that changes the way IT architectural
solutions are put forward by means of moving towards the
theme of virtualisation: of data storage, of local networks
(infrastructure) as well as software [1-2].
In a survey undertaken by the International Data
Corporation (IDC) group between 2008 and 2009, the majority
of results point to employing Cloud computing as a low-cost
viable option to users [3]. The results also show that Cloud
computing is best suited for individuals who are seeking a
quick solution for startups, such as developers or research
projects and even e-commerce entrepreneurs. Using Cloud
computing can help in keeping one’s IT budget to a bare
minimum. It is also ideally suited for development and testing
scenarios. It is the easiest solution to test potential proof of
concepts without investing too much capital. Cloud computing
can deliver a vast array of IT capabilities in real time using
many different types of resources such as hardware, software,
virtual storage once logged onto a cloud. Cloud computing can
also be part of a broader business solution whereby prioritised
applications utilise Cloud computing functionality whilst other
critical applications maintain organisational resources as per
normal. This allows for cost saving whilst maintaining a secure
degree of control within an orgainsation.
Cloud computing can be seen as a service-oriented ...
Cloud computing is very useful then also its own set of cons discourage cloud users to choose them as a best option. The multitenant architecture of cloud exposed to several threats such as improper trust management at service provider site, Storage security, Shared technology vulnerabilities, data lost/leakage during transit, unauthorized access of data. This paper studied review work on cloud steganography.
Abstract--The paper identifies the issues and the solution to overcome these problems. Cloud computing is a subscription based service where we can obtain networked storage space and computer resources. This technology has the capacity to admittance a common collection of resources on request. It is the application provided in the form of service over the internet and system hardware in the data centers that gives these services. But having many advantages for IT organizations cloud has some issues that must be consider during its deployment. The main concern is security privacy and trust. There are various issues that need to be dealt with respect to security and privacy in a cloud computing scenario [4].

"Cloud Computing" is a term, which involves virtualization, distributed computing, networking and web-services. It is a way of offering services to users by allowing them to tap into a massive pool of shared computing resources such as servers, storage and network. User can use services by simply plug into the cloud and pay only for what he uses. All these features made a cloud computing very advantageous and demanding. But the data privacy is a key security problem in cloud computing which comprises of data integrity, data confidentiality and user privacy specific concerns. Most of the persons do not prefer cloud to store their data as they are having a fear of losing the privacy of their confidential data. This paper introduces some cloud computing data security problem and its strategy to solve them which also satisfies the user regarding their data security.
Cloud computing has been a buzzword in the IT industry for quite some time now. Though it has been around for quite a while, its popularity has increased manifold in the last few years. The reason for this is simple – the benefits of cloud computing are simply too hard to ignore.
In a nutshell, cloud computing is the delivery of computing services—including servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence—over the Internet (“the cloud”) to offer faster innovation, flexible resources, and economies of scale.

Enterprise IT is transitioning from the use of traditional on-premise data centers to hybrid cloud environments. As a result, we’re experiencing a paradigm shift in the way we must think about and manage enterprise security. From Four Walls to No Walls Until now, the conventional view on IT security has been that applications and data are safe because they’re physically housed within the confines of a company’s data center walls using company-owned equipment. So, it’s not surprising that many decision makers perceive greater risks as they trade physical assets for cloud-based solutions.
Through our partnerships with leading cloud providers, we are able to offer hybrid, private and public cloud solutions. At Epoch Universal, we supply cloud the way you want it with deep control, extreme performance, and broad customization capabilities. When you join the Epoch Universal fold, you take back the keys to your kingdom. Reign as supreme commander in chief of your cloud. No compromises. No exceptions.

A traditional computing environment requires a costly
infrastructure to offer a better service to users. The introduction
of cloud computing has changed the working environment from
traditional to virtual. A larger number of IT companies are
utilizing the cloud. On the one hand, the cloud attracts more
number of consumers by offering services with minimized
capital cost and virtual infrastructure. On the other hand, there
are a risk and security challenges in cloud computing that
makes the user not to move completely towards it. The cloud
environment is more vulnerable to security breaches and data
theft. Moreover, insider attacks are more frequent in larger
enterprises. An unauthenticated user can cause more damage
to company reputation. The cloud service providers are trying
to provide a secure work environment for users. However,
there is a lack of global standards and policies to invoke
security measures in cloud computing. This study aims to
highlight and classify security challenges and trust issues in the
cloud environment.
The survey was conducted in various institutions and
governmental organizations in Saudi Arabia to study the
opinions of stakeholders on cloud computing security
challenges and risks.

Challenges and Benefits-for Adopting the Paradigm of Cloud ComputingMervat Bamiah
Cloud computing is a rapidly emerging technology that has removed the saddle of buying licensed software and heavy hardware. By exploiting this technology, clients are able to access resources remotely by using a simple web browser. They are not required to maintain hardware devices or software applications, so it saves managing cost and time for organizations. Many industries, such as banking, healthcare, and education, are moving towards the cloud due to the efficiency of services provided by the pay-per-use pattern. The utilization and payment process of cloud computing is similar to other common utilities such as electricity. As the users of electricity are only required to pay for the amount of electricity consumed throughout the month. Similarly, cloud providers charge the users based on the exploitation of a cloud system or resources such as processing power used, transactions carried out, bandwidth consumed, data transferred, or storage space occupied. Cloud computing is a completely internet dependent technology where client data is stored in the data center of a cloud provider. There are various challenges for adopting cloud computing such as privacy, interoperability and reliability. Beside these challenges, there are also several benefits for adopting this technology such as cost savings, easy scalability, and increased productivity. This research paper introduces a big picture of cloud computing and analyzes the key challenges as well as benefits of adopting the paradigm of cloud computing.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

3. INTRODUCTION
With the technology advancement, particularly
ubiquitous high-speed internet connectivity and the
ever-decreasing cost of storage have finally made
the realization of cloud computing.
Cloud computing denotes the infrastructure as a
cloud in which businesses and users are able to use
applications from anywhere in the world on
demand.
Thus, computing is being transformed to a model
consisting of services that are commoditized and
delivered in a manner similar to utilities such as
electricity, gas and telephony.

The NIST working definition summarizes cloud
computing as:
a model for enabling convenient, on-demand
network access to a shared pool of configurable
computing resources (e.g., networks, servers,
storage, applications, and services) that can be
rapidly provisioned and released with minimal
management effort or service provider interaction
Clouds are a large pool of easily usable and
accessible virtualized resources (such as hardware,
development platforms and/or services). These
resources can be dynamically re-configured to
adjust to a variable load (scale), allowing also for
optimum resource utilization. This pool of resources
is typically exploited by a pay-per-use model in

5. CLOUD CHARACTERISTICS
Scalability - Cloud computing allows an organization
to scale up or down their IT requirements quickly and
efficiently, without hampering productivity.
Self-Service and On-demand Service - Cloud
computing is based on self- service and on demand
service models. The user should be able to access
computing capabilities as and when they are needed.
Quality of Service - Cloud computing must assure
the best service level for users. Services outlined in
the service level agreement must include guarantees
on round the clock availability, adequate resources,
performance and bandwidth.

6. CONTD..
Virtualization - It is the technology that abstracts
the coupling between the hardware and operating
system. it refers to the abstraction of logical
resources away from their underlying physical
resources in order to improve agility, flexibility.
Versatility- Cloud computing does not aim at
certain special application. It can produce various
applications supported by cloud, and one cloud can
support different applications running at the same
time.

7. CLOUD COMPUTING BENEFIT
Cloud computing allure business
organization in at least two dimensions.
Firstly cloud can free companies from
drudgery of building and maintaining IT
infrastructure so that firm can focus on value
creating resources.
Secondly cloud provide flexibility in the form
of high elastic scalability, enabling
organizations to rapidly increase or decrease
their IT infrastructure as fast as their

8. TYPES OF CLOUD SERVICES
Software as a service (SaaS)
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
Platform as a Service (PaaS)
11/4/2022

9. SAAS
This is the most familiar and prolific cloud service of
all.
It provides any software application as a service
through the cloud.
Today there is a whole range of software
applications available through SaaS, be it ERP, CRM,
workflow system, document management and
much more.
The cloud service providers offers these services
and the users pay as they use the same.
11/4/2022

10. IAAS
IaaS is the delivery of computer infrastructure as a
service.
This give the organization control over different
resources and applications.
These resources comprise of storage, hardware,
servers, networking components, etc.
Apart form the higher flexibility, a key benefit of
IaaS is the usage-based payment scheme.
11/4/2022
10
11. PAAS
PaaS is a service delivery model in which service
provider provide developers with a platform
including all the system and environments
comprising the end to end life cycle of developing,
testing deploying and hosting of sophisticated web
applications as a service.
Cost effectiveness is one of the prime benefits of
PaaS
11/4/2022

13. PRIVATE CLOUD
A private cloud refers to having user’s own private
cloud computing infrastructure.
Instead of relying on an external, public cloud service
provider's infrastructure, user have their own.
A private cloud is more suited for a large enterprise
because it has already invested heavily in its
infrastructure, data center application etc..
This model does not bring much it terms of cost
efficiency, still it brings in tremendous value from a
security point of view.
11/4/2022
13
14. PUBLIC CLOUD
It refers to the resources (hardware, software,
applications) that a service provide offers over the
internet.
The deployment of a public cloud computing
system is characterized on the one hand by the
public availability of the cloud service offering and
on the other hand by the public network that is
used to communicate with the cloud service.
The key benefits of moving to a public cloud is that
user do not have to worry about managing the
underlying IT infrastructure, no security patches or
updates to apply, no software upgrades etc.

15. HYBRID CLOUD
As the name implies it is a cloud computing
environment that consists of internal/external
provider i.e. a mix of private and public clouds.
Secure and critical applications are hosted by
organizations in the private cloud while not so
critical ones are hosted in the public cloud.

17. SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT
As the customer move towards adopting Service
Oriented Architecture, the quality and reliability of
the service become important aspects.
A service-level agreement is a negotiated
agreement between two or more parties, where one
is the customer and the others are service
providers.
The SLA records a common understanding about
services, priorities, responsibilities, guarantees, and
warranties. Each area of service scope should have
the "level of service" defined.
11/4/2022
17
18. CONTD..
The SLA may specify the levels of availability,
serviceability, performance, operation, or other
attributes of the service, such as billing.
The "level of service" can also be specified as
"expected" and "minimum," which allows customers
to be informed what to expect (the minimum), while
providing a measurable (average) target value that
shows the level of organization performance.
SLAs commonly include segments to address: a
definition of services, performance measurement,
problem management, customer duties, warranties,
disaster recovery, termination of agreement.

19. TRUST IN CLOUD COMPUTING
Many enterprise customers are hesitant to buy cloud
offerings due to governance and security concerns.
Many potential users of cloud services lack confidence
that cloud providers will adequately protect their data
and deliver safe and predictable computing results.
Customers must trust the security and governance of
the cloud environment in order to have confidence that
their data will be protected and its integrity maintained.
Many potential cloud customers are also looking for
some level of assurance that appropriate security
measures are indeed being properly implemented in
the daily operations of the cloud infrastructure.
11/4/2022

20. CONT..
Broadly speaking, trust means an act of faith;
confidence and reliance in something that’s expected
to behave or deliver as promised.
We trust a system less if it gives us insufficient
information about its expertise. Mere claims such as
“secure cloud” or “trust me” don’t help much to
boost the trust level of consumers unless sufficient
information is presented with the services.
11/4/2022
20
21. FACTORS THAT EFFECT TRUST
Control - We do not trust a system less when we
don’t have much control over our assets.
Ownership - We can also see a variation of trust,
depending on the ownership of data assets.
Prevention - Trust in cloud computing is related
more to preventing a trust violation than to
guaranteeing compensation when a violation occur.
11/4/2022
21
22. CONT..
Security - Security plays a central role in preventing
service failures and cultivating trust in cloud
computing.
In particular, cloud service providers need to secure
the virtual environment, which enables them to run
services for multiple clients and offer separate
services for different clients.
In the context of virtualization, the key security
issues include identity management, data leakage
(caused by multiple tenants sharing physical
resources), access control, virtual machine (VM)
protection, persistent client-data security, and the
prevention of cross-VM side-channel attacks.

24. TRENDS IN CLOUD COMPUTING
During coming 5 years data stored in various
storage systems will increase by 44 times, with the
current rate of data growth.
It wouldn't be possible for enterprises to increase
their IT budget and scale up their IT infrastructure
with the information explosion that is happening.
In such instances, cloud computing is increasingly
being looked at by the enterprises as a great
alternative as it lets them scale up or down, save
organizations money, decrease the time to market.

25. CONT..
Cisco estimates
that close to 12
percent of
enterprise
workloads will run
in the cloud by
the end of 2013.
This, in turn, will
yield a market for
public-cloud
services of
approximately
US$43 billion.

28. CONT..
Currently the trend is that larger enterprises are
exploring public clouds for support applications such
as Dealer Management Systems, Document
Management System, mailing, CRM and learning
solutions.
The large enterprises having substantial “On-premise”
IT with many legacy applications and systems are
looking to optimize their IT through private clouds.
The concept of Hybrid clouds, is yet to gather
momentum. This will happen once public clouds
providers begin to follow open standards that will
enable seamless integration with apps or service
running on premise.
11/4/2022
28
29. CONT..
Public clouds that can be accessed cheaply and
without a big IT overhead are likely to be chosen by
small, developer friendly companies.
Several new cloud security trends are also
emerging. The cloud will enable small companies to
access powerful application, security technologies
through new subscription models.
11/4/2022

30. CONT..
Public cloud computing will defeat internal
clouds.
There is not much of a chance that an internal
cloud can possibly provide the same computing
power as a huge public cloud going forward.
Compared to large public clouds, private clouds
created by companies don’t really seem like clouds
at all, but rather a form of virtualization: nothing
but virtual machines shared by a collection of
employees.
11/4/2022
30
31. CONT..
These private systems lack the ability to operate
without a dedicated IT team. This makes adoption
of private clouds less realistic for small businesses.
Private clouds are simply more expensive and less
flexible than the alternative. As a result, private
clouds are not likely to grow in popularity this year.
Cloud Application Protection:
The exciting new technology enables companies to
scan and protect the source code on web
applications.
Application protection repeatedly tests an
application to see if changes in code were made,
11/4/2022

32. CONT..
Establishing trust in cloud computing will
undoubtedly require identity and data privacy
through encryption. It also require data integrity.
Advances in cryptography are addressing the issue
of confidentiality.
