Abstract

Cloud Computing is continuously evolving and showing consistent growth in the field of computing. It is getting popularity by providing different computing services as cloud storage, cloud hosting, and cloud servers etc. for different types of industries as well as in academics. On the other side there are lots of issues related to the cloud security and privacy. Security is still critical challenge in the cloud computing paradigm. These challenges include user’s secret data loss, data leakage and disclosing of the personal data privacy. Considering the security and privacy within the cloud there are various threats to the user’s sensitive data on cloud storage. This paper is survey on the security and privacy issues and available solutions. Also present different opportunities in security and privacy in cloud environment.
