Cloud computing is a prominent technology that allows clients to access the required data to accomplish their tasks on any machine with an internet connection. Although it is an emerging technique in the information technology world, it is facing some challenges also. Data security has become a big hindrance in the growth and promotion of cloud services. As data resides in different places all over the world, data security and privacy have become major areas of concern about cloud technology. Mathematical modelling acts as an important aid to examine and alleviate possible attacks or hazards on cloud models. The paper reviews several security areas and issues related to the cloud computing environment. It also aims to focus mathematical models on security issues that arise from the use of cloud services. Various threats to the data security for a faithful cloud environment are also discussed. Various methods that ensure cloud privacy and security of the data are also reviewed.Refference:
