Abstract

Cloud computing is, nowadays, one of the most interesting topics in computer science. Also, in research, a lot of effort is concentrated on cloud computing security issues. In this paper, we classify different security issues into the different levels that exist in cloud environments. We also present different solutions to the security issues in the cloud according to the type of security they provide with. Privacy, integrity, accountability, and integrity are major topics that are raised when companies start considering the cloud as an alternative to having their IT internally managed. Therefore, it is important to have a broad view of the different security problems present in the cloud and the different solutions that researchers are working on.
