Abstract

This chapter proposes a security and migration framework with business strategic implementation guidelines for successfully adopting cloud services, namely Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) in contemporary organisations. As a foundation to achieve this, the authors give emphasis to the importance of considering the security, privacy, and governance issues related to cloud implementations, along with the possible benefits of adopting cloud services in businesses. They discuss the various types of cloud, their deployment models, and service levels as these form the basis for strategically planning the security and migration framework implementation of cloud in an organization. In addition, the authors provide a step-wise security and migration framework that could serve as a business strategic guideline for a successful cloud service adoption in enterprises.
