Abstract:
Cloud Computing has become very popular throughout the years because of its ease
of use, Specially when it comes to Big Data solutions. It has become a multi-billion dollar industry but it has become a major target of the attackers because of the huge
amount of data that the attackers can get their hands on to. This project mainly
addresses security aspects in the cloud. The prototype will be focused on Amazon
Web Services (AWS) based applications. The prototype would be built according to
‘Shared Responsibility Model’ of AWS. The proposed solution focuses on how to
apply application log monitoring for Amazon Web Services (AWS) Infrastructure as a
Service (IaaS) environments. The proposed solution consists of few Machine Learning
Components in order to detect and prevent intrusions. The prototype will use AWS
CloudTrail and AWS ClourWatch Logs which are stored and mined for suspicious
events.
