Abstract
Computer crime is now becoming a major international problem, with continual increases in incidents of cracking, hacking, viruses, worms, bacteria and the like having been reported in recent years. As a result of this massive vulnerabilities and new intrusion techniques, the rate of cybercrime has accelerated beyond imagination. In recent years, cloud computing have become ubiquitous, permeating every aspect of our personal and professional lives. Governments and enterprises are now adopting cloud technologies for numerous applications to increase their operational efficiency, improve their responsiveness and competitiveness. It is therefore vital to find ways of reducing and controlling the risk associated with such activities especially in cloud computing environment. However, there is no perfect-safe way to protect against all cyber attacks, hence, there is need for a proper recovery planning in the event of disaster resulting from these attacks. In this chapter, several means of limiting vulnerabilities and minimizing damages to information systems are discussed.
