Article - Main Track RACLOUDS - Model for Clouds Risk Analysis in the Information Assets Context Author: SILVA, P. F; WESTPHALL, C. B.; WESTPHALL, C. M. Abstract: Cloud computing offers benefits in terms of availability and cost, but transfers the responsibility of information security management for the cloud service provider. Thus the consumer loses control over the security of their information and services. This factor has prevented the migration to cloud computing in many businesses. This paper proposes a model where the cloud consumer can perform risk analysis on providers before and after contracting the service. The proposed model establishes the responsibilities of three actors: Consumer, Provider and Security Labs. The inclusion of actor Security Labs provides more credibility to risk analysis making the results more consistent for the consumer. Keywords: cloud computing; risk analysis.
