چکیده

The adoption of the cloud computing paradigm is associated with increasing security concerns. Cloud computing service models (SaaS, PaaS and IaaS) are exposed to different security threats in each level of services. The Trusted Cloud Computing Platform (TCCP) proposes a security model that protects customers VMs at the IaaS level. In this paper, we investigate methodologies for the specification and scalability of a performance model and evaluation of the VM Launch security protocol within the TCCP model. The Markovian process algebra PEPA has been used to specify and analyse the VM Launch protocol.

Securely Launching Virtual Machines on Trustworthy Platforms in a Public Cloud - An Enterprise's Perspective

In this paper we consider the Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) cloud model which allows cloud users to run their own virtual machines (VMs) on available cloud computing resources. IaaS gives enterprises the possibility to outsource their process workloads with minimal effort and expense. However, one major problem with existing approaches of cloud leasing, is that the users can only get contr...
