This research aims to develop two templates to be followed by IT professionals whether they have the required expertise for cloud adoption or not to guide them through the whole data cloud adoption process. According to the risk appetite of the organization and their acceptable risk level, the template is chosen. These templates contain a guide to design the cloud security infrastructures, the placement of information in different IaaS deployment models (e.g. private IaaS, public IaaS, community IaaS, etc.), and what controls recommended to establish controls and governance in the cloud realm. These templates were developed based on the recommendation and guidelines National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Cloud Security Alliance (CSA), and European Union Agency for Network and Information Security (ENISA).
