Abstract :
Cloud computing is a technology that gives a convenient and on-demand access to the different services through a shared pool of configurable computing resources. This technology raises concerns about the movement of data and control into a third party´s control sphere. In this paper cloud security concerns and security requirements are addressed. Hypothetical cloud architecture and best practices for cloud security are proposed.
