Abstract

Cloud computing is one of the key current issues in the IT industry. Concern over the security of cloud computing has particularly been the subject of continuous disputes. Such security issues have magnified because of the attribute of cloud computing. This paper will observe the security issues according to the attribute of cloud computing and introduce which countermeasures are needed to strengthen the security which is the key problem that impedes the adoption of cloud computing.

This research was supported by Basic Science Research Program through the National Research Foundation of Korea(NRF) funded by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology(2011-0026023)
