What are the challenges related to cloud computing data security?

Hi Gunjan, There are various challenges related to cloud computing data security, listed below are some of them : 1. Multi-tenancy - makes it easier for a hacker to steal the data of all business customers who share the same cloud database. 2. Threats of data loss and data leakage -the threat of data leakage increases when employees use their mobile devices to access and share corporate documents via cloud storage services such as DropBox, Box etc., 3. Insecure APIs - Most Cloud service providers do not pay attention to the security of their APIs which can pose risks to an enterprise data with regards to privacy and data integrity. 4. Encryption - Most government regulations (HIPAA, PCI) require that data encryption. Although encryption is widely used, it is often implemented poorly. Many companies depend on the cloud provider for encrypting data which means that have control of the key & can access the data anytime. All the Best
