Abstract
Security is a key challenge in the deployment and broader acceptance of cloud computing services, and existing research efforts include evaluating the effectiveness of various security solutions such as security policy implementations and technological solutions. Attacks on cloud environment may be considered from the criminological perspective, and crime theories be used to protect the cloud. This paper introduces a conceptual cloud security model utilizing the concept of situational crime prevention (SCP). Using SCP techniques, it may be possible to design process and technology-based steps to modifying the cloud computing environment to make it less attractive to crime.
