Q1. What are the contributions mentioned in the paper "Privacy and consumer risks in cloud computing" ?

In this paper, Clarke et al. adopt the definition devised by the second author in an earlier paper and define cloud computing as a service that satisfies all of the following conditions: 1 ) The service is delivered over a telecommunications network ; 2 ) Users rely on the service for access to and/or processing of data ; 3 ) The data is under the legal control of the user ; 4 ) Some of the resources on which the service depends are virtualized, which means that the user has no technical need to be aware which server running on which host is delivering the service, nor 

8The starting point of any privacy discussion regarding cloud computing must be the realisation that several forms of cloud computing are in their infancy. 

While the legal issues facing cloud operators and cloud users stem from the fact that personal data is transferred across jurisdictional borders, applicable privacy regulation typically draws a line between data being transferred within an organisation, and data being transferred between organisations. 

To assess whether the company could do so, it would need to know in which country, or countries, its data would be stored – it would need to know the location of the cloud. 

If they fail to earn the trust of their customers by adopting clear and transparent policies on how their customers’ data will be used, stored, and protected, governments will come under increasing pressure to regulate privacy in the Cloud. 

organisations, businesses and individuals interested in utilising cloud computing products must ensure they are aware of the privacy and security risks associated with using the product and take those risks into account when deciding whether to use it.
