Cloud Computing: An Architecture, its Security Issues & Attacks

Every day new things are added in old and those things should have to be preserve for managing the future, new things are always come with the major question that where should keep the things safely? This concept is applicable for both the regular household things as well as the computer data. Day by day storage requirements are increasing but storage space is the same for preserving the data securely. For storing extra data the computer users may invest extra cost on separate storage devices or choose the newly added feature in IT environment is ‘Cloud Computing’.Cloud computing has extended feature of the distributed computing; it is a way to increase the capacity or add capabilities without investing in new infrastructure, training new personal or licensing new software.This paper mainly focused on the architecture of cloud computing; survey of the different security issues that has emanate due to the nature of the service delivery module of cloud computing system and type of attacks in cloud computing environment.
