Abstract Today cloud computing plays a vital role in the industry of internet applications; it covers a vast area of services which are directly or indirectly related to the online data sources. Trust models are playing a very crucial job in cloud computing sector and today trust is the only thing which is the biggest challenge to cloud-based technologies. There are lots of trust models techniques are available in the area of cloud computing to increase the levels of trust in between users and service providers. This survey briefly analyzed the factors and working aspects of cloud-based Trust models and it also compares the factors of different types of Trust models, which are calculating trust values using so many different types of parameters such as data integrity, service availability and data turnaround efficiency. Top Keywords Cloud computing, data reliability, trust models, trust management, authentication, cloud security. Top |
