Security Risk Issues And Controls For Cloud Computing In Iraqi Government Organisations

Cloud computing is becoming increasingly important in Information Technology (IT) as an enabler for improved productivity, efficiency and cost reduction. It is expected to offer benefits for public sector organisations and government agencies. Cloud computing has the potential to improve the reliabi...

Security Risk Issues And Controls For Cloud Computing In Iraqi Government Organisations
description Cloud computing is becoming increasingly important in Information Technology (IT) as an enabler for improved productivity, efficiency and cost reduction. It is expected to offer benefits for public sector organisations and government agencies. Cloud computing has the potential to improve the reliability and scalability of IT systems, which in tum allows organisations such as Iraqi governments to focus on their core business and strategy development and implementation. However, governments are still hesitant to adopt cloud computing because of fear for the confidentiality of their data. There are risks and barriers in adopting cloud computing in the Iraqi government whereby the top risk is security. Security issues, classified as the biggest concern, affect the growth of cloud computing technology of Iraqi government organisations. Therefore, this thesis aimed to investigate the Security Risk Issues (SRIs) that affect cloud computing adoption by the Iraqi government organizations. It also intends to investigate the Security Risk Controls (SRCs) that enhance the cloud computing adoption through mitigating the effect of SRIs. Mixed-methods were used to carry out the objectives of this thesis involving two steps; using qualitative and quantitative methods for the initial experiment and the quantitative and intelligent approach methods for the experimental stage.
