Governance for Azure and AWS Cloud Services

Abstract: These days, cloud computing services are utilized in all business, academic, and governmental domains to build IT infrastructure. Cloud computing services are one IT solution that is becoming more and more popular among different types of enterprises. Cloud computing services face many challenges, like how to protect and raise user knowledge. These problems and difficulties also pertain to cloud computing services, which could result in a number of important risk areas. One of the problems is not being aware of the hazards associated with cloud computing services and the controls that are required to reduce these risks. Because governance is difficult to execute in the cloud computing environment and has the responsibility of assessing performance and adherence to predetermined goals and objectives, it hinders the adoption of cloud computing services. This study aims to develop a model that ensures that the required controls are applied in cloud services offered by Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services (AWS) and assesses the risk if the controls are not applied.
