ABSTRACT
Today, in the world of communication, connected systems is growing at a rapid pace. To accommodate this growth
the need for computational power and storage is also increasing at a similar rate. Companies are investing a large
amount of resources in buying, maintaining and ensuring availability of the system to their customers. To mitigate
these issues, cloud computing is playing a major role [1]. The underlying concept of cloud computing dates back to
the ‘50s but the term entering into widespread usage can be traced to 2006 when Amazon.com announced the Elastic
Compute Cloud. In this paper, we will discuss about cloud security approaches. We have used the term “CloudDrain” to define data leakage in case of security compromise.
