    Abstract

    Over the last two decades, cloud computing has gained tremendous popularity because of ever growing requirements. Organizations that are heading towards cloud-based data storage options have several benefits. These include streamlined IT infrastructure and management, remote access with a secure internet link from all over the globe, and the cost-effectiveness that cloud computing can offer. The related cloud protection and privacy issues need to be further clarified. This paper aims to discuss all possible issues that are under research and are resisting consumers to migrate from traditional IT environment to new trend of cloud computing which offers flexible and scalable environment at low-cost.
