Although MSP is benefiting from attracting businesses by offering enterprise-class services, MSP is facing security challenge at the same time as well. When businesses decide to utilize cloud computing for their daily operation, they have put their trust into MSP by transfer and allowing them to process their data and information. MSP will not be able to afford any kind of incident that might happened in the future therefore cloud security is extremely important feature that must be implemented into cloud computing to prevent incident, mitigate risks and offer their customer confidence in utilizing MSP services.
