Amit Garg, Gundeep Tanwar

Abstract :

Cloud computing allows people to share distributed resources and services that belong to various organizations and sites. The service oriented, loose coupling, strong fault tolerant, business model and ease use are main characteristics of cloud computing. However, despite the surge in activity and interest, there are significant, persistent concerns about cloud computing that are impeding momentum and will eventually compromise the vision of cloud computing as a new IT procurement model .In this paper, a proposed method to build a trusted computing environment for cloud computing system by integrating the trusted computing platform into cloud computing system has developed with a vast attention to the security requirements in cloud computing environment
