“…Specifically, cloud computing's architecture may generate new security issues such as data leakage, virtualization, vulnerability and hypervisor vulnerability (Gonzalez et al, 2012). CS is complicated by the multi-tenancy of the virtualized resources (DFD, 2013), with data owners not necessarily knowing the location or reliability of the data hosts (Sarwar & Khan, 2013). Other major issues relate to: transmission, and availability (Mahmood, 2011); malicious insiders, outside attacks, and service disruptions (Behl, 2011); data protection, disaster recovery, and business continuity (DFD, 2013).…”

Cloud computing is a recent computing paradigm enabling organizations to have access to sophisticated computing services via the Internet on a fee-for-service basis. It provides Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) with opportunities to become as technologically advanced as their larger counterparts, without significant financial outlays. This paper examined the important factors that influence SMEs' adoption of cloud computing technology. Drawing upon aspects of the Technology, Organization and Environment framework and Diffusion of Innovation Theory, we developed a research model of SMEs' adoption of cloud computing and tested it through an online survey of 149 Australian SMEs. Data was analyzed using multiple regression methods, with results showing that SMEs were influenced by factors related to advantaging their organizational capability (i.e., relative advantage, quality of service and awareness) rather than risk-related factors (i.e., security, privacy and flexibility). The findings offer insights to SMEs owners, Cloud service providers and government in establishing Cloud computing adoption strategies for SMEs.

“…Security is one of the concerns about Cloud computing that continues to delay adoption (Jamwal, Sambyal & Sambyal, 2011). Sarwar and Khan (2013) found that security is the biggest issue in Cloud computing as, while utilising storage service in a remote location, the consumers are generally unaware of what happens to their data. According to Forrester research, Sahandi et al (2012) reported that security concerns are the most commonly cited reason why enterprises are not interested in SaaS Cloud.…”

New national infrastructure initiatives such as the National Broadband Network (NBN) allow small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Australia to have greater access to costeffective Cloud computing. However, the ability of Cloud computing to store data remotely and share services in a dynamic environment brings with it security and privacy concerns. Evaluating these concerns is critical to address the Cloud computing underutilisation issue and leverage the benefits of costly NBN investment. This paper examines the influence of privacy and security factors on Cloud adoption by Australian SMEs in metropolitan and regional area. Data were collected from 150 Australian SMEs (specifically, 79 metropolitan SMEs and 71 regional SMEs) and structural equation modelling was used for the analysis. The findings reveal that privacy and security factors do not significantly influence the decision-making of Australian SMEs in the adoption of Cloud computing. Moreover, the results indicate that Cloud computing adoption is not influenced by the geographical location (i.e., metropolitan or regional location) of the SMEs. The findings extend the current understanding of Cloud computing adoption by Australian SMEs. The results will be useful to SMEs, Cloud service providers and policy makers devising Cloud security and privacy policies.

Abstract-Biometrics is being commonly used nowadays for the identification and verification of humans everywhere in the world. In biometrics humans unique characteristics like palm, fingerprints, iris etc. are being used. Pattern Recognition and image processing are the major areas where research on signature verification is carried out. Hand written Signature of an individual is also unique and for identification of humans are being used and accepted specially in the banking and other financial transactions. The hand written signatures due to its importance are at target of fraudulence. In this paper we have surveyed different papers on techniques that are currently used for the identification and verification of Offline signatures.
