“…Subashini and Kavitha [17], state that sensitive data holds value to the end-user and needs to be protected. In addition, [46] discusses that each cloud customer needs to assess suitability and evaluate the security controls that the cloud provider offers. Sun et al's [26] key focus is that cloud customers must first acknowledge that their sensitive data is stored on cloud computing infrastructure, and cloud providers need to assure that it is kept confidential.…”

“…It follows that cloud providers need to assure that they act according to local regulations. The complexity arises when a cloud customer in Australia, for instance, is subject to foreign laws as their data is stored in another jurisdiction [46].…”

“…Adrian [46] argues technology developments generally outpace privacy and regulatory issues as a key contributor to privacy concerns. This is particularly important to cloud customers as the legal framework is outdated and insufficient for current cloud computing models [46]. The ineffective use of outdated privacy laws and regulations are difficult to be tied to cross-border data flows, as foreign corporations have data ownership to the data that was transferred [5].…”

“…To add to the severity of the problem, cloud customers are often unawares of the specific physical storage location of their data. Australia's lack of updating and enhancing of the Privacy Act 1988 is particularly problematic for cloud customers [46]. Svantesson and Clarke [5, p. 392] state that cloud computing "extends beyond mere compliance with data protection laws to encompass public expectations and policy issues that are not, or not yet, reflected in the law".…”

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.
