CBAC4C: Conflict Based Allocation Control for Cloud

Cloud lntrastructures are vulnerable to serious data leakage threats. Tenants with conflicting interests, residing on a shared cloud infrastructure, can potentially view the data of other potentially conflicting tenants' by means of inter-VM attacks. This paper discusses an innovative solution to overcome this data leakage problem by proposing the requirements for a so-called Conflict-Based Allocation Control for Cloud (CBAC4C) model.
