    Cloud computing is a combination of the use of information technology (computing) and internet-based development (cloud). The cloud is a metaphor for the Internet, just like the cloud which is often depicted in diagrams of computer networks. For example, Google Apps provides general online business applications accessible through a web browser with software and data stored on the server.

    Disadvantages of cloud computing

    There are advantages to using cloud computing, but it is undeniable that this system also has certain disadvantages. The risks of cloud computing to know, such as:

    Data privacy risk

    There is always the risk that other people can access user data. Therefore, data protection and cloud must be good, because if they are not dangerous for data privacy.

    It depends on the internet connection

    The internet is the only way to access cloud computing. When there is no internet connection for you or the internet path to the cloud provider is in trouble, the automatic access to your cloud computing machine will be disconnected.

    The level of security

    Secrecy and security are among the most dubious elements of cloud computing. Using a cloud computing system means that we are fully entrusted with the security and privacy of data to the companies that provide cloud computing servers.

    Conformity

    This is the risk of deviation from the supplier's level of compliance with the regulations applied by the user.

    Vulnerable in case of attack

    There are many arguments against cloud computing, one of which is IT because the working system of cloud computing is online, each component of cloud computing can be exposed to a wide range, this is a great opportunity for attacks on data or activities stored on the server. When hackers carry out an attack, the issues are data security and privacy.

    Data mobility

    which refers to the ability to share data between cloud services and how to recover data if the user ever goes through a cloud service termination process. And there is local storage where data can be used anytime as needed.

    Technical problem

    In addition to using Cloud Computing, which prevents you from managing it on your own in the event of a problem or problem, you should contact customer service which may not be ready 24/7. This is a problem because you also have to pay more for help.

    Bad connection

    It does not work well if the connection is slow. The quality of cloud computing servers is one of the most important considerations before deciding to provide a cloud computing server service provider.

    Cloud service providers maintain their cloud environments in a secure manner by adopting relevant security standards and certifications. Nevertheless, storing data and business-critical files in virtual data centers is potentially risky.
    Among the most common risks are:
    1. Theft or loss of data
    2. Data leakage
    3. Unauthorized access to accounts and services
    4. An insecure interface or API
    5. Denial of service attacks
    6. Exploiting technology vulnerabilities, especially in shared environments
