Abstract: Due to the increasing growth of technologies and the diversity of user needs in the field of information technology, the position of cloud computing is becoming more apparent. The development of computing infrastructure in any organization requires spending a lot of money, time, and manpower, which sometimes does not fit into the operational capacity of an organization. Therefore, organizations tend to use such technologies to advance their goals. A fully open and distributed structure in cloud computing and its services makes it an attractive target for attackers. This structure includes multiple service-oriented and distributed paradigms, multiple leases, multiple domains, and multi-user autonomous management structures that are more prone to security threats and vulnerabilities. In this paper, the basic concepts of the cloud computing and its applications have been investigated regarding to the importance of security issues. The proposed algorithm improves the level of security in the cloud computing platform through data mining and decision tree algorithm. Low computational burden and client numbers independency help to effectively implement the proposed algorithm in reality.
