Trusted Cloud Computing Platform into Infrastructure as a Service Layer to Improve Confidentiality and Integrity of VMs

Evolution of Cloud Storage as Cloud Computing Infrastructure Service

Enterprises are driving towards less cost, more availability, agility, managed risk all of which is accelerated towards Cloud Computing. Cloud is not a particular product, but a way of delivering IT services that are consumable on demand, elastic to scale up and down as needed, and follow a pay-for-usage model. Out of the three common types of cloud computing service models, Infrastructure as a...

Security Management of Infrastructure as A Service in Cloud Computing

Cloud Computing represents a new computing model that poses many demanding security issues at all levels, e.g., network, host, application, and data levels. The variety of the delivery models presents different security challenges depending on the model and consumers’ Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability, Authenticity, and Privacy are essential concern...

Acquiring Forensic Evidence from Infrastructure-as-a- Service Cloud Computing

We expose and explore technical and trust issues that arise in acquiring forensic evidence from infrastructure-as-a-service cloud computing and analyze some strategies for addressing these challenges. First, we create a model to show the layers of trust required in the cloud. Second, we present the overarching context for a cloud forensic exam and analyze choices available to an examiner. Third...

Integrating the Trusted Computing Platform into the Security of Cloud Computing System

Cloud computing has become one of the fastest growing fields in computer science. As the new computing service pattern of cloud computing develops rapidly, the security problem of cloud computing has become a hot research topic. Before the user passes important data or computing task to the cloud, the user of the cloud may want to verify the trusted status of the platform which actually carries...
