The objective of this project is to analyze and compare the security models, policies, and practices adopted by leading cloud service providers such as Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform, to identify strengths, weaknesses, and best practices in securing cloud environments.
Research Cloud Security Frameworks Analyze academic literature, industry reports, and technical documentation to understand common security models, protocols, and best practices used by cloud service providers.
Select Major Cloud Providers for Comparison Identify leading providers such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud, and gather detailed information on their security architectures and policies.
Assess Security Features and Compliance Evaluate mechanisms like encryption, access management, identity verification, monitoring, and regulatory compliance standards for each provider.
Compare Performance and Risk Mitigation Analyze differences and similarities in security effectiveness, vulnerability handling, and risk management strategies across providers.
Develop Analytical Framework Design a structured methodology to systematically compare security models using predefined criteria, metrics, and case studies.
Prepare Comparative Report and Recommendations Compile findings into a comprehensive report highlighting strengths, weaknesses, and actionable recommendations for organizations selecting or managing cloud services securely.
