The most popular ways of initializing containerized workloads such as KUBERNETES, GKE, FARGATE and OPENSHIFT, promise the transition towards cloud solution containers by offering commercial, open source or academic-based applications. In the introduction part, we analyze cloud architecture and determine the relation of the cloud and security in the cloud, mentioning conventional architectures. Our analysis focuses on the questionnaire that has multiple choice answers and to some questions, the answers were given in the form of professional opinions and statements regarding suggestions and views towards certain IT –based problems. The questionnaire was conducted over a three-month period.
Security issues become the major barrier for further adoption of container as well as cloud computing in general. Outsourced data and services in the cloud environment are subjected to the risks, among which security is a key risk to which a carefully implementation plan must be followed.
Usage of security patterns for building secure systems by describing ways to control specific threats fixes vulnerabilities and provides a safe environment for proper utilization of cloud services
There is low level of attention paid to the security in cloud environment, and this is depicted on Figure 1 (see below). On the scale from 1 – little to none till 5 – highly experienced, we can notice that respondents in our survey does not have adequate experience in working with cloud security issues which can lead to improper usage and configuration of cloud services.
In conclusion
In accordance with previous statements, thus how have some levels of awareness about importance of security in cloud environment, stressed out that confidentiality and availability aspects of cloud security is among highest, as depicted on Figure 2. Keeping in mind the diversity of services that are available through cloud services, it becomes clear why these aspects are major factor motivating the proliferation of security issues.
