Security is implicit within these capabilities, but furthe rfundamental concerns exist that need attention. For example, is security solely the storage provider’s responsibility, or is it also incumbent on the entity that leases the storage for its applications and data? Furthermore, legal issues arise, such as ediscovery,regulatory compliance (including privacy), and auditing. The rangeof these legal concerns reflects the range of interests that are currently using or could use cloud computing. These issues and their yet-to-be-determined answers provide significant insight into how security plays a vital role in cloud computing’s continued growth and development.
