Abstract :
Cloud computing, formerly heralded as the solution to all large-scale computing problems, has recently lost some appeal. The constant stream of privacy breaches, hacks, and outages in recent cloud-computing history has diminished the cloud´s appeal. The future of cloud computing requires fundamental changes to account for data confidentiality. The authors discuss the ways in which data confidentiality in the cloud can be achieved.
