End-user based model for risk quantification in Cloud Computing Environment

pdf PDF

ABSTRACT

Cloud computing is the result of the evolution and the adoption of new technologies and paradigms. Because of its accessibility via internet, that makes it subject to a large variety of attacks. In present paper, we talk about risk quantification by focusing on a Cloud user as the main actor who affects closely on system security by taking into account more parameters based on his conducts within the system as well the state of the assets treated within business processes.

KEYWORDS

Cloud computing; risk quantification; assessment; security system; threat; user stakeholders
