Clouds for a Clear View of Security

Security issues for cloud computing are rightly high on the cyber security agenda. How can you be sure your cloud provider is doing enough about security?  A number of new technologies are also emerging which claim to focus on the risks of cloud computing. In the long term, the market for cloud computing could be a great boon for security. Cloud providers will have to compete on their security status, which means they will have to be transparent and judged on their security merits. This will lead to stronger security all round. There is still too much confusion, obscurity and obfuscation in the security market at the moment.
