Security Threats in Cloud Computing

Abstract

In today's world, data is increasing day by day. Every business has so much of sensitive data that now they need space to store it somewhere. But data is so large that it is impossible for an enterprise to maintain that data itself. Cloud computing is the one technology through which the sensitive data can be stored and maintained by the cloud service provider hosted remotely. Since, all this data which is present on the cloud is very confidential, there is huge responsibility on cloud service provider to secure this data efficiently. In this paper we will learn about cloud computing, challenges in cloud computing, security of these clouds, and the current security threats in cloud computing and proposed work ending with some conclusions and lessons learned in this work.
