基于组织业务目标的云安全风险管理框架
A Framework for Cloud Security Risk Management Based on the Business Objectives of Organizations
摘要:
由于将敏感数据外包给第三方,安全性被认为是云计算(CC)的首要风险之一。此外,云模型的复杂性导致必须一致地管理大量异构的安全控制。因此,无论云模型的安全性有多强,企业仍然会因对CC缺乏信任而遭受损失,并且仍然不确定其安全风险后果。传统的风险管理框架不考虑CC安全风险对组织业务目标的影响。在本文中,我们提出了一个新的云安全风险管理框架(CSRMF),帮助采用CC的组织识别,分析,评估和减轻其云平台中的安全风险。与传统的风险管理框架不同,CSRMF由组织的业务目标驱动。它允许任何采用CC的组织了解云安全风险,并根据高级业务目标调整其低级管理决策。本质上,它旨在解决特定于云的安全风险对给定组织中业务目标的影响。因此,组织能够对采用CC技术进行成本价值分析,并对云技术获得足够的信心。另一方面,云服务提供商(CSP)能够通过管理与云相关的风险来提高生产力和盈利能力。已通过用例场景验证和评估了拟议的框架。
英文摘要:
Security is considered one of the top ranked risks of Cloud Computing (CC) due to the outsourcing of sensitive data onto a third party. In addition, the complexity of the cloud model results in a large number of heterogeneous security controls that must be consistently managed. Hence, no matter how strongly the cloud model is secured, organizations continue suffering from lack of trust on CC and remain uncertain about its security risk consequences. Traditional risk management frameworks do not consider the impact of CC security risks on the business objectives of the organizations. In this paper, we propose a novel Cloud Security Risk Management Framework (CSRMF) that helps organizations adopting CC identify, analyze, evaluate, and mitigate security risks in their Cloud platforms. Unlike traditional risk management frameworks, CSRMF is driven by the business objectives of the organizations. It allows any organization adopting CC to be aware of cloud security risks and align their low-level management decisions according to high-level business objectives. In essence, it is designed to address impacts of cloud-specific security risks into business objectives in a given organization. Consequently, organizations are able to conduct a cost-value analysis regarding the adoption of CC technology and gain an adequate level of confidence in Cloud technology. On the other hand, Cloud Service Providers (CSP) are able to improve productivity and profitability by managing cloud-related risks. The proposed framework has been validated and evaluated through a use-case scenario.
