Research Area:  Cloud Security

Abstract:

Cloud computing offers cost-effective solutions via a variety of flexible services. However, security concerns related to managing data, applications, and interactions hamper the rapid deployment of cloud-based services on a large scale. Although many solutions exist, efficiency, scalability, and provable security still have issues that need to be properly addressed. This article explores the various challenges, existing solutions, and limitations of cloud security, with a focus on data utilization management aspects, including data storage, data analytics, and access control. The article concludes with a discussion on future research directions that might lead to more trustworthy cloud security and privacy.
