ABSTRACT
Adoption of cloud computing services greatly reduce the cost of managing businesses and increase the productivity. But, due to complex network configurations of cloud, it is a vector for various malicious attacks. Logs are the most valuable element which can be helpful in revealing the insights of any activity happened in cloud. Experienced attackers and malicious users always targets to destroy logging service first, after their attacks to remain untraceable. The existing logging techniques, which consider logger as a trusted stakeholder cannot be applied in cloud as there is possibility of collusion in between logger of cloud i.e. cloud service provider and fraud cloud service consumer or cloud forensic investigators to falsify the logs.

SecLaaS: secure logging-as-a-service for cloud forensics
ASIA CCS '13: Proceedings of the 8th ACM SIGSAC symposium on Information, computer and communications securityCloud computing has emerged as a popular computing paradigm in recent years. However, today's cloud computing architectures often lack support for computer forensic investigations. Analyzing various logs (e.g., process logs, network logs) plays a vital ...
A framework for designing cloud forensic-enabled services (CFeS)
Cloud computing is used by consumers to access cloud services. Malicious actors exploit vulnerabilities of cloud services to attack consumers. The link between these two assumptions is the cloud service. Although cloud forensics assists in the direction ...
The Impact of Cloud Forensic Readiness on Security
CLOSER 2017: Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Cloud Computing and Services ScienceThe rapid increase in the use of cloud computing has led it to become a new arena for cybercrime. Since cloud environments are, to some extent, a new field for digital forensics, a number of technical, legal and organisational challenges have been ...
