Monitoring the security of cloud services

Burygin V.

Cloud computing speeds up the process of developing and releasing software applications, but cloud services are becoming more complex and dynamic, using both PaaS and IaaS level resources. The purpose of the study is to monitor the security of cloud services. The proposed modular approach to building a security monitoring system will help specialists focus on abstract, not assigned to a specific cloud provider, concepts when setting up a control system in several clouds. It is shown that technologies for monitoring the security of cloud services in general have a positive impact on the functioning of the management system of business structures. It is concluded that when forming the structure of the cloud service security monitoring system, the proposed methods will allow the formation and control of a service level agreement (SLA) at the same time, along with a system of metrics and performance indicators for cloud services.
