Instructions

Read the assigned resources pertaining to this week’s topics. Conduct a comprehensive literature search and review four additional peer-reviewed scholarly articles that provide sufficient background on the topics within the cloud computing security area. Write a thematically sorted, critical annotated bibliography of all articles in which you address the items below (for each work).

The work’s purpose
A concise summary of its contents
Its relevance to the topic
An analysis of the contribution’s unique characteristics
Your critical analysis of the study’s strengths and weaknesses

Each annotation should consist of at least 250 words, must be formatted properly, and must have a logical flow and transition between them. The final submission must contain a title page, table of contents, and reference list. Ensure an intuitive correlation and reference to any works other than those directly annotated that provide additional breadth and depth to the subject matter. Also, note that the analysis of the works should not focus on any challenges faced with the technologies’ implementation, development, or application as a technological analysis will be conducted in the following week. This annotated bibliography should provide sufficient background on the topic to provide a foundation for additional scholarly work.

Length: 8 annotations of approximately 250 words each

Your paper should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic.
