A NEW APPROACH FOR GENERATING CLOUDS FROM MODELS TO SECURE CLOUD STORAGE

Abstract

Authorization is an important security concern in cloud computing environments. It aims at
regulating an access of the users to system resources. A large number of resources associated
with REST APIs typical in cloud makes an implementation of security requirements challenging
and error-prone .To alleviate this problem, in this paper we propose an implementation of
security cloud monitor. We rely on model-driven approach to represent the functional and
security requirements. Models are then used to generate cloud monitors. The cloud monitors
contain contracts used to automatically verify the implementation. We use Django web
framework to implement cloud monitor and OpenStack to validate our implementation.
