NIST Cloud Computing Security Reference Architecture (Draft)

The NIST Cloud Computing Security Working group was created to achieve broad collaboration between Federal and private stakeholders in efforts to address the security-related concerns expressed by Federal managers. One of the tasks of the NIST Cloud Computing Working Group is to design a Cloud Computing Security Reference Architecture that supplements SP 500-292: NIST Cloud Computing Reference Architecture (RA) with a formal model and identifies the core set of Security Components recommended for building a successful and secure cloud computing Ecosystem. The document provides for an understanding of the security interdependencies of cloud services, Actors, and requirements that USG agency technical planning and implementation teams and agency procurement offices should identify and address in order to acquire cloud services with security levels that meets agency needs.
