Description
Summary:Mobile cloud computing offer many advantages for organizations and users such as availability of services in anytime and from anywhere, reduce the costs of distributed information systems, and save the users efforts and time the required to accomplish the services. The public services security of mobile cloud computing represents the main challenges of adopts and uses these services. The main aim of this research is to propose a secure mobile cloud computing model based on hybrid development approach for universities' in order to enhance the effectiveness of services provided by university and to ensure an effective mobile cloud computing security level. To address this aim, three main research objectives are formulated; 1) to identify the most applicable security methods and processes to increase the security performance of mobile cloud computing, (2) to study the important and challenges that face the security of mobile cloud computing according to university environment, and (3) to study the related variables, components, and security methods that needed to construct the proposed model. The literature review was conducted to address the first research objective. A questionnaire survey with 38 students from USIM University was conducted to address the second research objective. An interview with three experts in infonnation system security was conducted to address the third research objective. The validation findings show that the structure, the proposed security methods, and the components of the proposed model are useful to secure the mobile cloud computing services in the university. The proposed model fill important research gap which is the lack of the development of security cloud computing model for university services. The proposed model could encourage the university to adopt the mobile cloud computing services, and encourages the students to use these services.
