Cloud computing is the most emerging trend in
modern world technology and has its meaning to different
people under different circumstances. But the most common
characteristics are secure on demand access to different
services and transfer of data from both sides of the
organization. As the number of services, tools and active
organizations is increasing, so is increasing the threats. Most
of the securities have drawbacks in terms of cost and
reliability for both cloud computing organizations and its
using organizations. In this research article, we categorize the
basic problems that are related to security and must be dealt
seriously.

Cloud computing, the more it grows the more trust and
reliability and security is expected and needed. In the
research, we have proposed two different ideas that can be
used to develop and maintain the trust and reliability in
order to make cloud data more safe. We suggest two ideas
involving monitor auditing and advanced encryption of
cloud data to ensure better and reliable access control
policies.
