Cloud Computing and Cybersecurity in Human-Centric Intelligent Systems
Chery Ann Alexander and Lidong Wang*
ABSTRACT
Cloud computing provides a scalable, flexible, and accessible infrastructure for human-centric intelligent systems (HCIS). Cybersecurity plays a crucial role in enabling HCIS and maintaining the functions of HCIS. This paper presents cloud computing and cybersecurity in general areas/fields and highlights cloud computing and cybersecurity in the HCIS of healthcare, which includes multidisciplinary topics and applications research. This research includes a cyber risk management framework; a cloud shared responsibility model, an attack model, and the life cycle of identity and access management; a security shared responsibility model and security across a pipeline; the theories and principles of cloud computing and cybersecurity in general areas/fields (major theories and principles, improvements in the theories and principles, and the testing of the improvements); and the theories and principles of cloud computing and cybersecurity in the HCIS of healthcare (major theories and principles, improvements, and the testing of the improvements in the HCIS of healthcare). The evaluation and improvement of tools, data, and processes of the cloud and cybersecurity in a medical center (Charleston Regional Medical Center in the US) are presented as a case study.
