Application Layer Security For Cloud

Abstract

The rapid emergence and evolution of cloud computing have revolutionized the way organizations and individuals manage their data. However, this new technology also comes with its own set of security issues. The paper investigates the security concerns that arise when it comes to using cloud computing. It will help researchers and practitioners identify the most effective ways to protect their organizations from these threats. The paper explores the critical role that the application layer plays in the delivery of cloud services. It highlights the numerous vulnerabilities in this component that allow it to be exploited for various attacks, such as distributed denial of service and SQL injection. It also emphasizes the importance of following regulatory standards, such as HIPAA and GDPR, in order to protect sensitive information. This paper explores the various security techniques that can be used to protect an organization's cloud computing applications. Some of these include multi-factor authentication and encryption techniques. It also suggests the use of continuous monitoring and firewalls. The paper is based on the findings of a survey, which provides recommendations for improving the security of an organization's cloud computing applications. Through the sharing of knowledge and best practices, organizations can manage the complexity of their cloud computing environment.
