Abstract

Cloud computing has taken center stage in the present business scenario due to its pay-as-you-use nature, where users need not bother about buying resources like hardware, software, infrastructure, etc. permanently. As much as the technological benefits, cloud computing also has risks involved. By looking at its financial benefits, customers who cannot afford initial investments, choose cloud by compromising on the security concerns. At the same time due to its risks, customers -- relatively majority in number, avoid migration towards cloud. This paper analyzes the current security challenges in cloud computing environment based on state-of-the-art cloud computing security taxonomies under technological and process-related aspects.
