discussion and student response


 

Many organizations are moving to the cloud to protect their  infrastructure, reduce infrastructure costs, and improve their backup  capabilities. As a cybersecurity practitioner, you may very well be  asked to assist in the selection and implementation of a cloud computing  service model.

Go to Basic Search: Strayer University Online Library to  locate and integrate at least two quality, academic resources (in  addition to your textbook) on the cloud computing service models defined  by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). You may also use government websites, such as Cybersecurity from the National Institute of Standards and Technology.

Please respond to the following in a post of at least 200 words:

  • Compare and contrast the cloud computing service models defined by NIST.
  • Integrate practical examples of organizations you have researched  that that are using the various platforms, highlighting the advantages  and disadvantages of each.
  • Provide full citations and references, formatted according to Strayer Writing Standards. 
    • For assistance and information, please refer to the Strayer Writing  Standards link in the left-hand menu of your course. Check with your  professor for any additional instructions.

In 60 to 75 words, please respond to at least one other post. Choose to respond to those who have few or no responses. 

Note: You will find the information from this post  and the feedback you receive on it useful as you prepare your final  Cloud Computing assignment due this week.
