Abstract :
This paper is about the current state of security in cloud computing. It shows some of the key benefits and the major drawbacks that come around with swapping out services and infrastructure to a public cloud. Based on these benefits and drawbacks, K.O. (knock-out) criteria will be identified, which can be seen as the minimum basis for secure cloud environment. Then a final conclusion about security in cloud computing will be given.
