摘要:Cloud computing is a better way to increase thecapabilities dynamically without the expenses spent in newinfrastructure or licensing new software. Though cloudcomputing is providing better utilization of resources byvirtualization techniques and taking up much of the work loadfrom the user, it is fraught with security risks. Traditionalidentity management systems are designed to be cost effectiveand scalable primarily for the service providers, but notnecessarily for the users, which often results in poor usability.Users are often required to memorize multiple passwords foraccessing various services from different service providers. Inthis paper, a survey of the different security risks that pose athreat to the cloud is presented. This paper compares variousidentity management models and paradigms and the results aresummarized in the form of table.
