Abstract

Recommendation ITU-T X.1601 describes the security framework for cloud computing. The Recommendation analyses security threats and challenges in the cloud computing environment, and describes security capabilities that could mitigate these threats and address security challenges. A framework methodology is provided for determining which of these security capabilities will require specification for mitigating security threats and addressing security challenges for cloud computing. Appendix I provides a mapping table on how a particular security threat or challenge is addressed by one or more corresponding security capabilities.
