Abstract
Cloud computing is one of the most cutting-edge advanced technologies around the world. According to the recent research, many CIOs who work for famous corporation mentioned that security issues have been the most critical obstacles in the adoption of cloud technology. As one of the prominent application of cloud computing, cloud storage has attracted more concerns; however, many security problems existing in cloud storage need to be resolved. This applied research paper briefly analyzes the development of cloud storage security, comprehensive discussion of several general solutions to those problems introducing several non-technical issues, such as third-party issues, trust mechanism in cloud computing. Finally, some possible improvement to those solutions is provided.
