    (AWS) Security Workshop - Pre-Read Material

    Amazon Web Services (AWS) Security Workshop - Pre-read material It is highly recommended to go through the pre-read before attending the AWS Security workshop. Shared Responsibility Model Security and Compliance is a shared responsibility between AWS and the customer. This shared model can help relieve the customer’s operational burden as AWS operates, manages and controls the components from the host operating system and virtualization layer down to the physical security of the facilities in which the service operates. The customer assumes responsibility and management of the guest operating system (including updates and security patches), other associated application software as well as the configuration of the AWS provided security group firewall. Customers should carefully consider the services they choose as their responsibilities vary depending on the services used, the integration of those services into their IT environment, and applicable laws and regulations. The nature of this shared responsibility also provides the flexibility and customer control that permits the deployment. As shown in the chart below, this differentiation of responsibility is commonly referred to as Security “of” the Cloud versus Security “in” the Cloud. AWS responsibility “Security of the Cloud” - AWS is responsible for protecting the infrastructure that runs all of the services offered in the AWS Cloud. This infrastructure is composed of the hardware, software, networking, and facilities that run AWS Cloud services. Customer responsibility “Security in the Cloud” – Customer responsibility will be determined by the AWS Cloud services that a customer selects. This determines the amount of configuration work the customer must perform as part of their security responsibilities.

    Commvault on AWS Comprehensive Cloud Data Management for Hybrid IT Table of Contents The Data Management Challenge 3 Commvault and Amazon Web Services 4 Benefits 7 Case Study: Dow Jones 8 Getting Started 9 2 The Data Management Challenge Today, more data is being generated than ever before. Keeping up with the rapid pace of data growth presents a series of challenges. Enterprise organizations are collecting petabytes of customer and application data that must be backed up and accessible to meet compliance requirements. Increased regulation around data retention policies make it more difficult to manage backup and archive storage, as critical data may be required to be kept for years and maybe difficult to find. Further complicating matters, point solutions often overlap and leave gaps where data is unprotected and require additional staff to manage them. These issues lead to increased costs, yet many IT departments are facing budget cuts and cannot expand upon their capital to meet increased performance demands. Today’s hybrid IT organizations realize cloud can help solve many data storage issues. With cloud storage comes the need for a comprehensive data management platform to manage data both on-premises and in the cloud. Savvy organizations streamline IT operations and reduce cloud waste with flexible orchestration to automate resource provisioning, policies and routine tasks. This eBook will demonstrate how Commvault and Amazon Web Services (AWS) deliver a cost-effective data management solution that addresses all of these challenges with a single, scalable solution. 3 Commvault and Amazon Web Services Unlike most backup and recovery solutions, Commvault offers a single data platform solution for all backup and recovery needs; as opposed to having to several point solutions for each use case (i.e.

    Elliptic Curve Cryptography in Cloud Computing Security

    Elliptic curve cryptography in cloud computing security Manu Gopinathan ([email protected]) Øyvind Nygard ([email protected]) Kjetil Aune([email protected]) December 1st, 2015 1 Abstract Cloud computing is a technological advancement that has been growing swiftly during the last decade. In simple terms, cloud computing is a technology that enables shared, remote, on-demand and ubiquitous access to services through the Internet. It enables consumers to access applications and services that reside on remote servers, without having to allocate large amounts of storage space on their own computer and without the need for extensive compatibility configurations. Many such cloud applications provide services that are meant to handle sensitive user data and thus the protection of this data in terms of access and integrity is of major concern. Space- and time complexity of encryption algorithms can prove to be imperative when it comes to system performance. In this paper we will briefly present how elliptic curve cryptography (EEC) works, and then describe the advantages of it and how it can be used as an encryption solution to security related issues in cloud computing. 2 Introduction In this section we will briefly describe the notion of cloud computing to aid us in the discussion of ECC in cloud computing later. According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), essential characteristics for a service based on the cloud computing model are [1]: 1. On-demand self-service: The consumer can provision service capabilities, such as server time and network storage, without actively interacting with the service provider. 2.

    https://doi.org/10.31449/inf.v43i1.2650 Informatica 43 (2019) 313–319 313 Consistency in Cloud-based Database Systems Zohra Mahfoud USTHB University, Algeria E-mail: [email protected] Nadia Nouali-Taboudjemat CERIST Research Center, Algeria E-mail: [email protected] Keywords: cloud computing, consistency, distributed databases, relational databases, No-SQL, CAP Received: July 15, 2019 Cloud computing covers the large spectrum of services available on the internet. Cloud services use replication to ensure high availability. Within database replication, various copies of the same data item are stored in different sites, this situation requires managing the consistency of the multiple copies. In fact, the requirement for consistency level can be different according to application natures and other metrics; a delay of some minutes in visualizing latest posts in social networks can be tolerated, while some seconds can make a loss of a bid in an auction system. Wide variety of database management systems are used actually by cloud services, they support different levels of consistency to meet the diversity of needs. This paper draws a presentation of the main characteristics of cloud computing and data management systems and describes different consistency models. Then it discusses the most famous cloud-based database management systems from the point of view of their data and consistency models.
