Abstract: Cloud computing technology is a relatively new concept of providing scalable and virtualized resources, software and hardware on demand to consumers. It presents a new technology to deliver computing resources as a service. It offers a variety of benefits like services on demand and provisioning and suffers from several weaknesses. In fact, security presents a major obstacle in cloud computing adoption. In this paper, the authors will deal with security problems in cloud computing systems and show how to solve these problems using a quantitative security risk assessment model named Multi-dimensional Mean Failure Cost (M2FC). In fact, they summarize first security issues related to cloud computing environments and then propose a generic framework that analysis and evaluate cloud security problems and then propose appropriate countermeasures to solve these problems.

Enabling Public Auditability and Data Dynamics for Storage Security in Cloud Computing
TL;DR: To achieve efficient data dynamics, the existing proof of storage models are improved by manipulating the classic Merkle Hash Tree construction for block tag authentication, and an elegant verification scheme is constructed for the seamless integration of these two salient features in the protocol design.
Addressing cloud computing security issues
TL;DR: This paper proposes introducing a Trusted Third Party, tasked with assuring specific security characteristics within a cloud environment, and presents a horizontal level of service, available to all implicated entities, that realizes a security mesh, within which essential trust is maintained.
