Cloud computing security, road at the foot of cloud computing tornado storm

August 9, 2006, Google CEO Eric Schmidt first proposed the "Cloud computing" (Cloud Computing) concept in the search engine conference. Since then, the concept of "cloud computing" has expanded at an extremely rapid pace, and everything in the ICT industry has been tagged with "cloud" and flown into the air. In 2011, Google and Baidu search for "cloud computing" and "cloud computing", respectively, feedback more than 100 million and 4千多万条 results, "cloud computing," the heat can be seen.

According to CCID statistical analysis, from 2010 onwards, China's domestic cloud-related industry annual growth rate of more than 80%, is expected to 2012 the overall size of more than 60 billion yuan.

Excerpt from CCID report, white Paper on cloud industry development in China

Garnter, a third-party analysis agency, pointed out in its August 2010 Technical Concept Hot Research report that cloud computing is at an expected peak (as shown in the following figure).

From Gartner ' s Hype Cycle Special report for 2010

Cloud computing has become a tornado storm.

Reflections on the Landing of cloud computing

In recent years, China's government, enterprises and other aspects of the research and layout of cloud computing, such as: Beijing's Xiangyun Project, the Shanghai e-Cloud plan, and so on; The major operators set up cloud computing research institutions, finance, electricity, transportation and other large enterprises are also in the application of cloud computing pilot. On the whole, the domestic application of cloud computing is still in the exploration and trial stage, more organizations and enterprises are still watching and waiting.

In the cloud computing concept hot promotion process, many experts also calmly put forward: cloud computing Follow-up promotion is the key to landing. The two key points of cloud computing landing are:

1, Cloud computing and application of the agreement

Cloud computing technology needs to find a highly compatible application, through cloud computing technology, to effectively solve user needs, improve efficiency. Therefore, cloud computing technology planning needs to be integrated into the user's overall it construction planning, step-by-step, planned construction.

2. Cloud computing Security challenges

The problem of cloud computing security remains a major obstacle to migrating users to cloud computing applications. Cloud computing poses great challenges to information security, on the one hand, the centralization of computing and data resources poses new requirements for information security, on the other hand, cloud computing has changed traditional it network patterns, and traditional network security products have lost their deployment location.

How to solve the security problems posed by cloud computing is a challenge for information security enterprises, and it is the responsibility of the peers in the security industry to find a way to ensure the safety of the users in the process of the construction of cloud computing applications.

The path of cloud computing security exploration and practice in the star and net Nebula

The star and the net nebula have been closely tracking and attention to users in the implementation of cloud computing security needs and security solutions, extensive participation in cloud computing security technical discussion and standard-setting, and actively participate in the National cloud security research projects. At the same time, through the cloud computing security technology in the field of technical reserves and accumulation, in close cooperation with industry peers in the typical customer's cloud computing system construction projects, the cloud computing system security solutions to explore and practice.

In the 2010, Morning Star began to study the key technologies in cloud computing security field, and successfully declared a series of national research projects such as the Electronic Development Fund "cloud computing key supporting software (platform security Software) research and development and industrialization".

In the 2011, the cloud technology and the Internet Nebula in the field of cloud computing security close cooperation reached a strategic agreement. The two sides will maximize the integration of cloud technology in the cloud computing technologies, the relevant industry technology solutions and the advantages of the net cloud in the network security, cloud computing security technology reserves, as well as government, military, financial and other industries in the field of advantage, to achieve "cloud computing + security" strong cooperation, Enhance the visibility of both brands and core competitiveness, with a view to bringing greater market benefits for both sides.

Also in 2011, Venus Chen and Fang software formally reached an agreement, the two sides became strategic partners, by the Qiming Star Software Strategic Investment, the two sides in the field of virtualization and cloud computing in-depth strategic cooperation, to work together to create a cloud security solution.

In the cloud computing tide, the star and the net Cloud Nebula will be together with the customer, in the construction of clouds in the practice process, to find an effective way to protect the cloud computing system security solutions.
