Abstract

Cloud Computing (CC) is a model that allows shared and configurable computing resources positioned in the cloud with little management effort from the CloudServicesProviders (CSP). However, security, reliability, cost, virtualization, need, on demand service, maintenance, integration, user friendliness legislation and regulations are top priority in the adoption of cloud computing concepts with security being the most important. This paper highlights the challenges of adoption of cloud computing paradigm, examines threats in cloud computing as highlighted by several authors with proposed solutions. The burdens on Cloud Services Providers and the future of this technological shift are also discussed.
