5. Research Conclusions Summary Initial Results-August 2009 The desire to benefit from the elastic promise of cloud processing is blocked for most enterprise applications because of security and privacy concerns. The re-introduction of transparency into the cloud is the single biggest action needed to create digital trust in a cloud and enable the capture of enterprise-scale payoffs in cloud processing. Even today there are ways to benefit from cloud processing while technologies and techniques to deliver digital trust in the cloud are evolving. CSC has created a definition and an approach to "orchestrate" a trusted cloud and restore needed transparency. Resist the temptation to jump into even a so-called secure cloud just to save money. Aim higher! Jump into the right trusted cloud to create and capture new enterprise value.

6. CloudTrust Protocol Revealed Research Extension Detailing What and How – July 2010 Transparency in the cloud is the key to capturing digital trust payoffs for both cloud consumers and cloud providers. The CloudTrust Protocol (CTP) offers an uncomplicated, natural way to request and receive fundamental information about essential elements of transparency. The reliable delivery of only a few elements of transparency generate a lot of digital trust, and that digital trust liberates cloud users to bring more and more core enterprise services and data to cloud techniques. Transparency-as-a-Service (TaaS) using the CTP provides a flexible, uniform, and simple technique for reclaiming transparency into actual cloud architectures, configurations, services, and status … responding to both cloud user and cloud provider needs. Transparency protocols like the CTP must be accompanied by corresponding concepts of operation and contractual conditions to be completely effective.
