Title
A behavior-aware SLA-based framework for guaranteeing the security conformance of cloud service.
Abstract
As cloud computing technology turning to mature, cloud services have become a trust-based service. Users’ distrust of the security and performance of cloud services will hinder the rapid deployment and development of cloud services. So cloud service providers (CSPs) urgently need a way to prove that the infrastructure and the behavior of cloud services they provided can be trusted. The challenge here is how to construct a novel framework that can effective verify the security conformance of cloud services, which focuses on fine-grained descriptions of cloud service behavior and security service level aggreements (SLAs). In this paper, we propose a novel approach to verify cloud service security conformance, which reduces the description gap between the CSP and users through modeling cloud service behavior and security SLA, these models enable a systematic integration of security constraints and service behavior into cloud while using UPPAAL to check the performance and security conformance. The proposed approach is validated through case study and experiments with real cloud service based on Open-Stack, which illustrates CloudSec approach effectiveness and can be applied on realistic cloud scenario.
