Praise for Cloud Security and Privacy
Adoption of cloud computing is clearly a strategic direction for many companies. The
convergence of inexpensive computing, pervasive mobility, and virtualization technolo-
gies has created a platform for more agile and cost-effective business applications and IT
infrastructure. The cloud is forcing the novel and thoughtful application of security
controls, creating a demand for best practices in the security program and governance
regimes. Cloud Security and Privacy provides a guide to assist those who are wrestling
with building security in the cloud. This book is a great starting point for the cloud
computing journey.

mentation of cloud computing services. For learning about cloud computing security and
privacy issues, this book is a must-read.

There have been many attempts to understand cloud computing and to illustrate the secu-
rity issues involved with such technologies. This is one of the first books to explore in
detail the definition of cloud computing and to outline solutions available today to
address the key risks of adopting such technologies.

Distributed information use and management is the reality of today. Cloud computing
offers the promise of more efficient and cost-effective computing to facilitate information
use, but also expands known risks and introduces new risks yet to be discovered and
managed. Cloud Security and Privacy is a book for everyone who is interested in under-
standing the risks and rewards of cloud computing and for those who seek to get in front
of the next great evolution in information management with a solid pragmatic plan.
