Cloud computing is an internet based computing. In terms of security, it provides very good security features. It gives the information about Data Related Security,Application related security issues,CSP level attacks,Network level attacks,Security requirements for cloud computing
• Guest hopping attack : An attacker will try get access to one virtual machine by penetrating another virtual machine hosted in the same hardware. • SQL injection: It can be done by injecting the SQL commands into the database of an application to crash the database. • Malicious Insider: In private cloud, its employee is granted access to the sensitive data of some or all customer administrators. Such privileges may expose information to security threats. • Side channel attack: It occurs when an attacker places a malicious virtual machine on the same physical machine as the victim machine so that he can access all the confidential information on the victims machine.
“Cloud computing is 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.” Cloud Computing by NIST It is an internet based computing where all the shared resources ,software and information are provided to the computers and devices on demand. Users can access the information from anywhere and anytime
