2014 Cloud Security Five predictions

Data security has always been the focus of IT staff. However, as cloud computing became the protagonist of the spotlight, cloud Security became the best supporting actor in 2013, and was the subject of great attention. The world is changing all the times, and there is no doubt that today's news is likely to define many of tomorrow's innovative technologies. Security Solutions company Gazzang has been closely observing this and purposefully improving their solutions to meet the business needs for cloud computing and large data. As the  2013 year draws to a close, Gazzang shares some of the 2014-year cloud-security-related predictions:  1.saas vendors will provide an end-user-revocable key.  saas vendors know they have an obligation to protect sensitive data on behalf of their clients. Gazzang observers believe cloud vendors will provide encryption and allow them to control access to encrypted data by giving their customers final key control. The fragility of  2.API will be revealed.   Because of the application integration, API popularity is increasing, and they help to apply (and Internet connection targets) to request data from one another. However, the core business data exposed by the API makes them more vulnerable to hackers, increasing the risk of intrusion attacks, data theft, and Dos attacks.  3. European companies will migrate data from Cloud and SaaS vendors in the US region to counter the prism-gate scandal.  , which includes Google, Amazon, and Microsoft, a cloud service provider in the U.S., accounts for about 85% of the global market. Still, in a recent survey of the Cloud Security Alliance, 56% of the 500 respondents were non-U.S. residents, who were less likely to use cloud companies in the US because of the prism-gate incident that exposed the government's potential access to private information about clients. In response, European cloud partners in EU members have drafted a charter to promote digital cloud services in the EU region.  4. With the Prism gate incident far away, data privacy issues will soar.   Most people and organizations will find that they are not the NSA's target, but the residual effects of the espionage scandal will also push the data privacy issue into the spotlight and become a hot topic in the 2014. A recent poll found that 86% of U.S. Internet users have taken online measures to eliminate or obscure their digital footprint by using a variety of methods, and more than 70% of European citizens want more control over the online use of data.  5. Customer data trustees such as Google, Yahoo and Facebook are starting to provide customer-based key management services that enable vendors to host cryptographic measures, and end users manage their personal information keys.   Customer cloud storage vendors may plan to design systems that highlight security recoverability.However, with organizations such as NSA continuing to pry into the privacy of citizens, cloud services are under increasing pressure to allow users to have their own encryption keys to prevent access to sensitive data, or they may receive government subpoenas.  2013 has become a celebrity, and the U.S. Security Service has become the focus of Internet users, and it is these people, these things, the data security, especially the data security in the cloud raised a high level. Therefore, we have reason to believe that the cloud security issue will be higher in 2014, and more vendors may be committed to providing cloud security solutions to meet the needs of users.
