Abstract
Cloud computing has grown significantly in computing services. It is defined as a bunch of computing resources accessed by the Internet. Security in cloud computing, a vicinity filled with challenges and of overriding importance, is in its initial stage of growth currently, and lots of analysis issues are yet to be known. Cloud computing has become the boon of the IT industry. It is like the next step of Internet evolution with a managed and efficient platform for data storage with enormous capabilities and applications. It assists the authorities to access one’s file or data without installing the particulars on the user’s machine using Internet services. Cloud computing enables on-demand network access or shared access to configured computing resources. The use of multiple operating systems on a machine maximizes the use of that particular resource. In this context, it specifies the creation of a virtual version of resources such as storage devices, virtual operating system, deploying an application or software on cloud (SaaS). A system has both pros and cons; cloud computing is no exception. Some of its consequences are cloud security, manageability, integrity, theft, data loss, and so on. In the presented paperwork, we would be reviewing different challenges and issues faced in the data security over cloud.
