Abstract [en]
With the immense amount of data generated daily, relying solely on physical storage is insufficient. Therefore, Cloud services have become a big part of our day-to-day life, as they allow users to store data and relieve customers from the burden of maintenance. However, this technology relies on the internet, which increases the potential security risks and threats. This survey-based study investigates users' security practices concerning Storage as a Service, along with a literature review of current security threats targeting users of these services. Additionally, a comparative analysis is conducted to compare the security features offered by the cloud storage providers. The study shows that users are generally concerned about internet security, and service providers have implemented appropriate security features to protect users.
