The emergence of the cloud computing paradigm has influenced business organizations for migration over two decades. This has enabled a more incredible communication speed paired with a better fault tolerance of web-based applications and the scope of having practically unlimited storage available for the user and business data. Such colossal data availability over cloud platforms has increased concerns about the security of the same from various threats such as unauthorized eavesdropping,

This article aims to deep dive into the present stateof-the-art in cloud security research and mitigation approaches. It is observed that cloud storage, cloud services are the widely used applications among the organization. However, vulnerabilities and security challenges faced by this two area is maximum. Besides, outsourcing sensitive information to cloud service provider's (CSP) end leads to trust issues among organizations. This article performs a detailed comparative analysis of the security frameworks developed towards cloud storage level, cloud service level, and cloud trust level to date and throws light on future research directives. All the existing research has been evaluated against CIA (confidentiality, Integrity, Availability) principles here.
