International Journal of Electronic Security and Digital Forensics (IJESDF), Vol. 16, No. 4, 2024

Abstract: The majority of organisations tend to subcontract the computational requirements toward public cloud services to minimise capital expenses. However, the desire of minimum cost and higher efficiency also leads to data risk and misuse in a number of cases. Correspondingly, the security concerns keep on growing for the public cloud deployments. These include the challenges related to core security, trust, compliances as well as service management etc. Different aspects of the public cloud security have been presented in this work with specific examples and associated implications. Both the technology perspective and the service perspective have been taken care of to illustrate the need for a comprehensive security framework. Relevant security parameters have been identified and a comprehensive cloud security framework has been presented to take care of the security needs of public cloud deployments. The framework offers the essential parameters and techniques that should be taken-up in the design of public cloud deployments. The implementation of the framework will go a long way in offering security to the public cloud frameworks.
