Description
Summary:Cloud computing extends an enterprise ability to meet the computing demands of its everyday operations, while offering flexibility, mobility and scalability. However, the reason that chief information officers (CIOs) and their colleagues hesitate to let their business workloads to move from private cloud into public cloud is security. This work tries to offer a line of defense by applying mobile agents technology to provide intrusion detection for cloud applications regardless of their locations. Therefore, CIOs feel safer to use cloud to extend their on-premise infrastructure by adding capacity on demand.
