Abstract:
Today Cloud Computing and virtual infrastructure are one of the most popular ways to deploy application hosting and web-farm platforms. Cloud Infrastructure services also known as “Infrastructure as a Service” (IaaS) are the way to deliver computer infrastructure, typically virtual environment as a service. Distributed nature of IaaS and likelihood that different customers can use the same server and network deliver new security threats. Security of open source platforms of Cloud Services is discussed. Threats that impact on availability components of platform and customer separation features are shown. The distributed way of network security monitoring of availability and integrity of IaaS is described.
