Evidence-Based Certification of Cloud Services
摘要
Cloud-based service certification extends traditional certification schemes to address the peculiarities of dynamic distributed environments. It pursues three main objectives: (i) greater flexibility of the certification process (i.e., models for certification life cycle, target, and process), (ii) adaptability to service evolution and environmental changes (i.e., incremental certification), (iii) soundness of the chain of trust, reducing the involvement of chartered (and costly) Certification Authorities.
