Abstract: This paper explains the biggest risks that come with putting information into the cloud and suggests ways to solve them. Although cloud storage is useful because it is cheap and flexible, it means users lose direct control over their files. To keep data safe, we need two things to work together: better technology and better management rules. Better technology means using tools like encryption and making sure only authorized users can see certain files. Better management means training employees well and having clear security plans. The main problems we found are not just about computers; they also involve human mistakes, complicated systems, and making sure the secret encryption keys are managed correctly. We conclude that true cloud security is a balance: we must make protection strong enough to work, but simple enough that people will actually use it. This requires clear communication between the company storing the data and the person owning the data.
