Resource sharing is the vital notion of cloud computing. Everything that is available in cloud can be accessed as a service. The users can move the data to the cloud environment because of the accessing flexibility. While moving the data to the cloud ,the infrastructure can pose severe security and privacy issues. There is a chance that the attacker can easily spoof an authorized user's data. This study explains an overview of the possible threats and attacks that occurs in cloud computing and provides certain solution to overcome those threats and attacks.
