Cloud Computing (CC) is technical term for providing a plethora of Information Technology services to customers via networks. Usually, those services in CC are provided via third parties who own the infrastructures. It offers a practical business model for any organization to utilize Information Technology services without upfront details. However, an organization may not be in a hurry in adopting CC because of security issues. These issues are an active field that need to be handled in a proper way to avoid attacks and threats for both consumers and service providers. This paper scrutinizes CC attacks and threats with their techniques of mitigation and producing complete list of CC security threats. The paper also scrutinizes CC security gap and focuses on types of service delivery.
