Abstract
Users can purchase virtualized computer resources using the cloud computing concept, which is a novel and innovative way of computing. It offers numerous advantages for IT and healthcare industries over traditional methods. However, a lack of trust between CSUs and CSPs is hindering the widespread adoption of cloud computing across industries. Since cloud computing offers a wide range of trust models and strategies, it is essential to analyze the service using a detailed methodology in order to choose the appropriate cloud service for various user types. Finding a wide variety of comprehensive elements that are both required and sufficient for evaluating any cloud service is vital in order to achieve that. As a result, this study suggests an accurate, fuzzy logic-based trust evaluation model for evaluating the trustworthiness of a cloud service provider. Here, we examine how fuzzy logic raises the efficiency of trust evaluation. Trust is assessed using Quality of Service (QoS) characteristics like security, privacy, dynamicity, data integrity, and performance. The outcomes of a MATLAB simulation demonstrate the viability of the suggested strategy in a cloud setting.
