Trust Based Privacy Policy Enforcement In Cloud Computing, Karthick Ramachandran Mar 2015

Trust Based Privacy Policy Enforcement In Cloud Computing, Karthick Ramachandran

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Cloud computing offers opportunities for organizations to reduce IT costs by using the computation and storage of a remote provider. Despite the benefits offered by cloud computing paradigm, organizations are still wary of delegating their computation and storage to a cloud service provider due to trust concerns. The trust issues with the cloud can be addressed by a combination of regulatory frameworks and supporting technologies. Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PET) and remote attestation provide the technologies for addressing the trust concerns. PET provides proactive measures through cryptography and selective dissemination of data to the client. Remote attestation mechanisms provides reactive measures …


Geography Aware Virtual Machine Migrations And Replications For Distributed Cloud Data Centers, Sakif Shahriar Pritom Jan 2015

Geography Aware Virtual Machine Migrations And Replications For Distributed Cloud Data Centers, Sakif Shahriar Pritom

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Cloud computing provides access to computing resources for a fee. Client applications and services can be hosted in clouds. Cloud computing typically uses a network of data centers that are geographically dispersed. The distance between clients and applications is impacted by geographical distance. The geographical distribution of client requests can be random and difficult to predict. This suggests a need to reconsider the placement of services at run-time through migration. This thesis describes a framework based on software-defined networking (SDN) principles. It demonstrates algorithms that are periodically executed and determine candidate services to migrate and replicate as well as target …
