Cloud Computing appears as a computational model and a distributive
architecture framework. The main objectives of cloud computing are to provide
secure, quick, convenient data storage and net computing service, with all
computing resources visualized as services and delivered over the Internet. The
term “Cloud Computing” has been in the spotlights of IT, CS and CE specialists
in the last years because of its potential to transform this industry. Security in
Cloud Computing is an important and critical aspect, and has numerous issues
and problem related to it. Cloud service provider and the cloud service consumer
should make sure that the cloud is safe enough from all the external threats so
that the customer does not face any problem such as loss of data or data theft.
This research presents and classifies the factors that affect the security of the
cloud then it explores the cloud security issues and problems faced by cloud service
provider and cloud service consumer. The main goal of this research study
is to introduce a comparable analysis for the proposed security issues, the security
categories, and the cloud computing services.
