Abstract :
Cloud IaaS and PaaS providers typically hold Cloud consumers accountable for protecting their applications, while Cloud users often find that protecting their proprietary system, application and data stacks on public or hybrid Cloud environments to be complex, expensive and time-consuming. In this paper we demonstrate, how integration of a security solution such as BT Intelligent Protection with the Service Store, results with security operations capability that can scale accordingly to the Cloud use. By enabling "click-to-buy" security services and "click-to-build" secure applications with a few mouse clicks, this integration creates a new paradigm for self-service Cloud-based integrity and security services.
