Problems And Solutions

This chapter provides a literature review and the related work about the insider attacks and solutions in cloud environment. The authors classified solutions into three categories: trusted computing-based approaches, encryption-based approaches, and virtualization-based approaches. The trusted computing approaches use remote attestation, sealed storage, and integrity measurement. Encryption-based approaches use the cryptographic operations along with cloud computing security mechanisms and policies. Virtualization-based approaches use the virtualization technology to solve critical security issues using trusted computing approaches. At the end of this chapter, they compare various solutions and summarize the problems and solutions.

Cloud computing security has become a key problem of restricting the development of cloud computing, solving the cloud computing security problem has been extremely urgent. At present, it has become a new favorite in the cloud computing security research field that trusted computing is used to solve the cloud computing security, this paper uses remote attestation in trusted computing to solve the cloud computing security problems. In a cloud computing environment, the service provider not only needs to provide reliable components, but also needs to ensure that the computing platform system is reliable. In this paper, in view of the characteristics of the cloud computing platform, these two approaches are consolidated and improved, and a proof method based on the component properties and the system behavior (CPTBA) is put forward.

The World

In recent years, cloud computing has developed from the promising business concept that it used to be, to one of Information Technology (IT) industry's most developing section. Now that the world economy was hit by recession, the victims of this tragedy continually understand that by just outsourcing or tapping the cloud  resources, a package of virtualise, elastic, instant on-demand provision, and scalable; infrastructure, platform, and software can be access fast and easy inform of services at a negligible amount via the internet. However, as individuals and organizations embarked on the course of deploying their information and data into the cloud, anxieties are beginning to develop on whether the cloud environment is safe. This research provides an overview of the cloud deployment model, the services they offer and discusses the security issues and challenges of cloud computing in both data storage and virtual applications/servers.

Cloud computing was a hasting expertise which has innovated to a collection of new explores. A sub-ordinate device for Information services, it has an ability towards encourage development by feeding convenient environments for a choice of forms of development is different sequence. Clouds usually consider being eco-friendly, however keep it has open to the diversity of some security issues to can change together the feeder as well as users of these cloud services. In this issue are principally associated to the protection of the information flow throughout also being store in the cloud, with simple problems along with data ease of use, data right to use and data confidentiality. Data encryption and service authentication scheme has been initiated by the industries to deal with them. In this paper analyse and examine different issues on security beside with the different procedure worn by the industries to solve these effects.

Today cloud computing is widely used in various industries. While benefiting from the services provided by the cloud, users are also faced with some security issues, such as information leakage and data tampering. Utilizing trusted computing technology to enhance the security mechanism, defined as trusted cloud, has become a hot research topic in cloud security. Currently, virtual TPM (vTPM) is commonly used in a trusted cloud to protect the integrity of the cloud environment. However, the existing vTPM scheme lacks protections of vTPM itself at a runtime environment. This paper proposed a novel scheme, which designed a new trusted cloud platform security component, ‘enclave TPM (eTPM)’ to protect cloud and employed Intel SGX to enhance the security of eTPM. The eTPM is a software component that emulates TPM functions which build trust and security in cloud and runs in ‘enclave’, an isolation memory zone introduced by SGX. eTPM can ensure its security at runtime, and protect the integrity of Virtual Machines (VM) according to user-specific policies. Finally, a prototype for the eTPM scheme was implemented, and experiment manifested its effectiveness, security, and availability.

Design Challenges

Cloud computing has recently emerged as a new paradigm of computing for hosting and delivering services over the Internet. It replaces computing as a personal commodity by computing as a public utility. It is attractive solution to business owners as it eliminates the requirement for users to plan ahead for provisioning, and allows enterprises to start from the small and increase resources only when there is a rise in service demand. However, despite the significant benefits, these technologies present many challenges including lack of security. The chapter presents an advanced survey focusing on cloud computing concept. It highlights its key concepts and presents a physical architecture of this environment. Finally, the chapter defines virtualization technology as a factor for cloud computing surge and discuses security issues that damage these systems. The aim of this chapter is to provide a better understanding of the design challenges of cloud computing.
