  • Abstract
    Given the threat of security breaches, to both cloud service providers and organizational cloud service users, cloud security and privacy are growing public policy concerns as well a salient area of inquiry for researchers. To ensure organizational competitiveness, cloud service providers and organizational cloud service users must make detailed preparations to act against cyberthreats before they occur, and to recover from malicious cyberactivities when such threats succeed. A cloud security risk-management strategy should be a dynamic document that´s regularly reviewed by stakeholders, and should include policies and objectives that align with the organization´s needs.
