Cloud computing is a complex environment developed on a framework of systems, in terms of topology and network technology. The services in the cloud ecosystem are flexible and available to organizations on-demand, resulting in a significant growth in the number of clients in recent years. However, due to the key design feature of the Internet and protocols utilized to access these cloud services, it is vulnerable to a plethora of security issues. Out of these critical security issues, the Denial of Service (DoS) and the Distributed Denial of Ser- vice (DDoS) rank high on the long list of prominent cyber attacks in the cloud infrastructure. In this thesis, we will examine and discuss the frequent security issues in cloud computing, as well as, provide detection mechanisms for Denial of Service attacks in the cloud environment (with Amazon AWS) using SNMP. The attack's impact is measured in terms of processor pa- rameters such as, CPU utilization, I/O, and latency.Collections
