•    On demand availability
Cloud Computing – Challenges
•    Security
•    Performance
•    Uninterrupted availability
•    Integration with in-house IT
•    Ability to customize to internal needs
•    Migrating back to in-house
•    Regulatory requirements prohibit cloud (data storage abstracted)
Cloud Computing Security – Advantages
•    Shifting public data to a external cloud reduces the exposure of the internal sensitive data
•    Cloud homogeneity makes security auditing/testing simpler
•    Clouds enable automated security management
•    Redundancy / Disaster Recovery
Cloud Computing Security – Challenges
•    Trusting vendor’s security model
•    Customer inability to respond to audit findings
•    Obtaining support for investigations
•    Indirect administrator accountability
•    Proprietary implementations can’t be examined
•    Loss of physical control
•    Denial of Service
