“…The authors demonstrate the main limitation of this proposed conceptual framework is privacy being a subset requirement of security. [33] agree that the lack of service level agreement analysis during the conceptual framework process is a major contributor to ineffectively measuring cloud provider services.…”

As more and more personal, enterprise and government data, services and infrastructure moves to the cloud for storage and processing, the potential for data breaches increases. Already major corporations that have outsourced some of their IT requirements to the cloud have become victims of cyber attacks. Who is responsible and how to respond to these data breaches are just two pertinent questions facing cloud computing stakeholders who have entered an agreement on cloud services. This paper reviews literature in the domain of cloud computing data breaches using a socio-technical approach. Sociotechnical theory encapsulates three major dimensions-the social, the technical, and the environmental. The outcomes of the search are presented in a thematic analysis. The 7 key themes identified from the literature included: security, data availability, privacy, trust, data flow, service level agreements, and regulation. The paper considers complex issues, preempting the need for a better way to deal with breaches that not only affect the enterprise and cloud computing provider, but more importantly, end-users who rely on online services and have had their credentials compromised.

“…Farr and Fischer [42, p. 55] suggest that some companies might be reluctant to create "potential competitors for themselves", or depend on a key supplier or partner. Including a management framework in contracts for collaborative agreements can mitigate risks and compensate for lack of trust among technologists [7]. Performance measurements through regular meetings, setting of milestones and delivery schedules are put into practice through process controls.…”

“…Research indicates collaboration generally involves large costs associated with significant breadth in technical knowledge, skills and resources to achieve successful operations [5,6]. Additional concerns of information security and breach of intellectual property have been raised [7]. Therefore, overcoming these risks to achieve CPD success is not without challenges.…”

Collaborative product development (CPD) activities have become increasingly common to keep up with market demands, shorten development cycle times, and improve overall competitiveness. This study examines the success factors that affect CPD to investigate how hi-tech organizations align technical and managerial skills to achieve development process effectiveness. A monoview strategy using data from qualitative interviews, examines an engineering project in a CPD environment within the New Zealand context. The study identifies factors within four contexts -management, cross-functional teams, processes, and supporting tools -that interact with each other to achieve improved CPD performance and project outcome. Company managements aim to create an environment that enable information flow between cross-functional teams, integrate professional skills and talents with the product development process and adopt technology-mediated supporting tools to maximize productivity and achieve better innovation results through collaboration.

“…The approach chosen within Akogrimo, as within other service-oriented Grid research projects, such as [16], [17], and [18], is to safeguard all interactions by dynamically negotiated SLAs. These SLAs typically refer to existing paper-based contracts in order to be legally binding.…”
