Evaluation Theory for Characteristics of Cloud Identity Trust Framework

Abstract

Trust management is a prominent area of security in cloud computing because insufficient trust management hinders cloud growth. Trust management systems can help cloud users to make the best decision regarding the security, privacy, Quality of Protection (QoP), and Quality of Service (QoS). A Trust model acts as a security strength evaluator and ranking service for the cloud and cloud identity applications and services. It might be used as a benchmark to setup the cloud identity service security and to find the inadequacies and enhancements in cloud infrastructure. This chapter addresses the concerns of evaluating cloud trust management systems, data gathering, and synthesis of theory and data. The conclusion is that the relationship between cloud identity providers and Cloud identity users can greatly benefit from the evaluation and critical review of current trust models.

Trustworthy Cloud Computing

“…As discussed in Chap. 2, the SLA details the level of service to be provided, often in the form of specific QoS metrics (Ghazizadeh and Cusack 2018). Obviously, in the context of trust, there is a close relationship between SLA metrics and monitoring, and unsurprisingly this is a major focus of both cloud monitoring systems (see Fatema et al 2014) and trustworthy cloud computing research.…”

Bandwidth and Delay Optimization by Integration of Software Trust Estimator with Multi-user Cloud Resource Competence

“…One of the major features to be wellthought-out related to the quality of service is reliability, which has to be dealt with competently. An efficient trust assessment [16] is introduced before the sharing of the infrastructure, and it results in scalable and reliable service for its legitimate users.…”
