NIST Issues Public Cloud Computing Guidance: SP 800-144: Guidelines on Security and Privacy in Public Cloud. NIST defines a public cloud as one in which the infrastructure and computational resources are made available to the public over the Internet and is operated by a provider delivering cloud services to consumers. Public cloud computing is a viable choice for many applications and services for enterprises to consider, says NIST’s Tim Grance. “Accountability for security and privacy in public cloud deployments cannot be delegated to a cloud provider,” Grance says.”]
