cloud computing We surveyed 642 and 283 IT practitioners (a.k.a. cloud computing users) located in the US and Europe, respectively. We queried these individuals about the following topics:  The perceptions about the security of cloud computing within organizations.  How organizations in our study are using SaaS, PaaS and IaaS and how important these resources are to achieving corporate data processing objectives.  The reasons for using cloud computing resources.  Who is responsible for ensuring a secure cloud computing environment.  How the security posture of cloud computing compares to on-premise.  The security technologies that respondents see as most important to securing the cloud.  What respondents see as their organization’s primary cloud computing security risks.  Types of sensitive or confidential information too risky to be moved to the cloud. 1 See Security Guidance for Critical Areas of Focus in Cloud Computing, Cloud Computing Architectural Framework, Cloud Security Alliance, p. 15, April 2009. Ponemon Institute© Research Report Page 2  Most significant changes anticipated as computing resources migrate from on-premise to the cloud.  How effective organizations are in achieving a secure IT environment for data, applications and infrastructure managed on-premise versus obtained from cloud service providers.  What enabling security technologies should continue to be deployed on-premise and what technologies should be deployed as a service from the cloud.  What system control activities are necessary for organizations to secure information assets and the IT infrastructure.  What security risks are most salient to organizations as they quickly migrate from on-premise to cloud computing resources.  How organizations deal with “critical areas of focus” for organizations deploying cloud computing resources as identified by the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA). 2
