Abstract

Cloud computing has changed the nature of IT and business. However the adoption issues for the cloud is mainly due to the lack of transparency and control. Also, there are too many cloud service providers in the marketplace offering similar functionalities. In order to support the consumers in identifying trustful cloud providers, Trustworthy mechanisms for selecting cloud service providers is proposed in this paper. The proposed system is implemented using feedbacks and credential attributes (QoS) of providers. A modified Identity model is proposed to identify malicious feedbacks and provides improvements in the trust computation. Results show that the trust computation using the proposed architecture is more efficient in terms of finding accurate trust based providers.
