Cloud security is the cornerstone of the development of cloud computing

Cloud computing has become a key technology that affects the entire IT industry, and security is the keys to the success of cloud computing. If cloud computing is the key to the development of IT industry, cloud security is the most important issue in cloud computing.

According to the survey, the IT industry in the current 82% of IT professionals are very trusting of cloud computing, they believe that the function of cloud computing is strong enough for the development of the industry to bring a qualitative leap. But cloud security is not the first solution, the development of cloud computing will be blocked.

Although the development of cloud computing is the trend, but for now, many enterprises and users still have doubts about the security of cloud computing. Security is always a concern when it comes to sensitive data, especially when cloud services involve a company's firewall problem.

The survey also showed that 52% of respondents ranked security as higher priority, and 32% rated security as medium priority. There are also professionals who say that some of the important data they do not want to put in the cloud, such as the company's confidential data, credit card data and confidential intellectual property rights.

Even so, companies are hoping to continue to serve the enterprise by introducing modest security policies. Another 29% of the respondents said they had reviewed and developed a security policy, while 44% per cent said they had properly reviewed and developed a safety policy. Therefore, the future of cloud computing will have a great development.

Cloud Computing Market Research Institute Cloudtweaks pointed out that cloud computing security has some basic requirements, including data storage system, the implementation of cloud access control user identification management system. Cloudtweaks recommends that each user have a defined identification system to access various resources in the cloud with different privileges. Of course, security policies are the most important in such systems, because they play a significant role in the same way as other parts of the cloud.

"Ensuring data security is fundamental to the cloud computing environment," said Francisdesouza, president of Symantec Enterprise Products and services group. "If security is not enough, then it doesn't make sense to go into the cloud." Despite a series of related plans, many companies still say they are not ready to deploy cloud computing. Only a handful of respondents (15%~18%) think they are fully prepared for a transition to a cloud computing environment, while about half of respondents say their IT departments are not ready to do so.

Public concern about cloud computing security is not unreasonable, after all, there is a lack of structural stability in the cloud platform at home and abroad. And the vast number of internet companies buried in the development of their own cloud application platform, it is suspected of being behind closed doors. Without a unified standard, a standardized security system would naturally be impossible to talk about. So from another perspective, the question of cloud security is the question of cloud application platforms. Although now cloud computing enterprises generally believe that "security is not a stumbling block to the development of cloud computing", but from the current situation, cloud computing development is still a bumpy road, heavy responsibilities.
