The Conventional Security of Cloud Computing and the Growing Threat to Quantum Computing

Cloud computing has turned into an important technology of our time. It has drawn attention due to its, availability, dynamicity, elasticity and pay as per use pricing mechanism this made multiple organizations to shift onto the cloud platform. It leverages the cloud to reduce administrative and backup overhead. Cloud computing offers a lot of versatility. Quantum technology, on the other hand, advances at a breakneck pace. Experts anticipate a positive outcome and predict that within the next decade, powerful quantum computers will be available. This has and will have a substantial impact on various sciences streams such as cryptography, medical research, and much more. Sourcing applications for business and informational data to the cloud, presents privacy and security concerns, which have become crucial in cloud installation and services adoption. To address the current security weaknesses, researchers and impacted organizations have offered several security techniques in the literature. The literature also gives a thorough examination of cloud computing security and privacy concerns.
