Challenges and Solutions in Network Security for Serverless Computing

EasyChair Preprint no. 11747

Abstract

This research study explores the challenges and solutions related to serverless computing so that the computer systems connected to the network can be protected. Serverless computing can be defined as a method of managing computer services without the need to have fixed servers. The qualitative research method is used by this research study, which does not include any numerical data and involves the examination of non-number data so that the network security challenges can be identified in detail. In the literature review, the past studies from 2019 to 2023 are reviewed to identify study gaps so that the foundation for investigating serverless network security. The literature review is based on thematic analysis, so all the data can be organized into meaningful themes. The findings of this research study include the solutions to the challenges like data privacy, insecure dependencies and limited control. The strategies to overcome these challenges include encryption, strong monitoring and other relevant strategies. This research study also suggests the use of blockchain technology and Artificial Intelligence. In short, this research study provides insights to improve serverless computing security and also guides future researchers to innovate creative solutions for developing security challenges.
