Abstract
Cloud computing has revolutionized how businesses and individuals store, manage, and process data, offering scalable resources and services through the internet. Its flexibility, cost-efficiency, and ease of access have made it an integral component of modern IT infrastructure. However, the widespread adoption of cloud services also brings significant security challenges. This paper provides an overview of cloud computing, outlining its fundamental concepts, service models (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS), and deployment models (public, private, hybrid, community). Several types of attacks threaten cloud systems, including data breaches, denial-of-service (DoS), insider threats, account hijacking, and insecure APIs. These attacks target critical areas such as data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. In response, cloud service providers (CSPs) employ various security mechanisms. This paper emphasizing the need for robust security frameworks to mitigate attacks in the cloud.
