computational entities are called computers or nodes. 1.2 Cloud Computing: When you store your photos online instead of on your home computer‚ or use webmail or a social networking site‚ you are using a “cloud computing” service. If you are an organization‚ and you want to use‚ for example‚ an online invoicing service instead of updating the in-house one you have been using for many years‚ that online invoicing service is a “cloud computing” service. Cloud computing refers to the delivery of computing resources

Towards Trusted Cloud Computing Nuno Santos Krishna P. Gummadi Rodrigo Rodrigues MPI-SWS Abstract Cloud computing infrastructures enable companies to cut costs by outsourcing computations on-demand. However‚ clients of cloud computing services currently have no means of verifying the confidentiality and integrity of their data and computation. To address this problem we propose the design of a trusted cloud computing platform (TCCP). TCCP enables Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) providers

“Apple CEO Steve Jobs unveiled several new Apple services‚ including iCloud‚ that underscore a major shift taking place in the tech world as users’ information moves from gadgets to the cloud‚ where it is stored on remote servers and accessible from any device with an Internet connection” (Bosker‚ 2011). The Cloud is an online set amount of storage where users can put data and other things that are on their apple products‚ for backups‚ syncs‚ emails‚ and other personal usage. The iCloud takes away

ABSTRACT Cloud computing is defined by Cearly and Phifer in their case study titled “Case Studies in Cloud Computing” as “a style of computing in which scalable and elastic IT-related capabilities are provided ‘ as a service’ to customers using Internet technologies”. Cloud computing services had been provided by major vendors such as Google‚ Amazon‚ Microsoft‚ IBM‚ Hewlett-Packard‚ and others for business computing until recently when Apple Corporation announced iCloud for consumers. Therefore

Trusted cloud computing Cloud Computing is the technology of using central remote servers to maintain data and applications‚ and allows companies to use those shared resources without any care about installing or maintaining those resources. The main concern with this remote processing is the leak of data confidentially. This report summarizes the design of a trusted cloud computing platform (TCCP) for addressing this concern. Introduction To address the security leak in cloud computing environment
