MechanisMs to Protect Data in the oPen clouD

as organizations of all sizes and types consider the adoption of public and private cloud computing, they need to be confident that their security concerns can be addressed. Cloud computing environments inherently introduce a high degree of resource sharing among disparate workloads, and in the case of public clouds, that sharing includes unknown outside parties. Therefore, it is vital that the technologies that underlie cloud computing can ensure a known, trusted compute environment and enable data encryption while still meeting performance requirements and automation needs.
