摘要：Contemporary exploration of all stages of service models clearly proves the immense significance of #8213;Security in Cloud Computing#8214;, which being as obtuse as it is pertinent, demands attention. An analysis of recent studies depicts certain useful approaches for the fulfillment of security objective; however, these advancements are largely inconsistent with the forays of research in other fields. Numerous technologies amalgamate in the implementation of cloud computing security, one of which is ontology. In this paper, a critical study of security ontologies has been accomplished in which these ontologies have been further classified into three major categories: Generalized, Specific with sub categories: Web Services (WS) and Web Ontology Language (OWL) based Security Ontologies, Network Security Ontologies, Security Requirements Ontologies, Risk based Security Ontologies and Application based Security Ontologies; and Miscellaneous. The present research aims to firstly, classify the above-said ontologies and thereby offer a prismatic analysis of the same. By using ontology, one can aim at securing the cloud through security countermeasures with consideration of applicable threats and security solutions deployed to support appropriate security services and objectives.
