Analysis of security issues and management standards in Cloud Computing

Analysis of security issues and management standards in Cloud Computing A cloud refers to a distinguishable IT domain that is formed for the motive of remotely provisioning measured and extensible IT resources. Cloud Computing provides us a means by which we can access, create and configure the applications as utilities, over the internet thus removes the burden of need of local hardware and software to run an application. However, besides the advantages of cloudcomputing, security remain the prime issue which become barriers in growth of cloud computing. Security concerns arise as it moves the data from locally to remotely to large centralised datacenters. This paper describes the security concerns within the cloud itself and some recommended security management frameworks and standards in the context of deployment model.
