Mouna Jouini, Latifa Ben Arfa Rabai · International Journal of Embedded and Real-Time Communication Systems · 2016
Cloud computing technology is a relatively new concept of offering reliable and virtualized resources, software and hardware on demand to users. It presents a new technology to deliver computing resources as a service. It allows several benefits for example services on demand, provisioning, shared resources and pay per use and suffers from several challenges. 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 estimate security breaches using a quantitative security risk assessment model. Finally, the authors use this quantitative model to solve these problems in cloud environments.
