Abstract

The rise of cloud computing gives community's advantages to an open environment. Outsourcing of data and applications to third parties can cause serious harm to the organizations. Security in cloud computing is a challenging issue. In this paper, we design a framework for balancing accountability and privacy in cloud computing through the development of intelligent techniques.
