				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi, I am sorry that I am a little new to this forum, and can sound like a noob. I wanted to know what are the primary security threats that the cloud is now facing and what methods have been applied to either solve or avoid them. I was hoping to get an answer which is practically being used rather than a hypotetical theory.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I read this article that questioned if <a target="_blank" href="http://www.cloudave.com/13965/cloud-slas-are-dead/">cloud SLAs are dead</a>, and I was curious what the IT community had to say about it. It seems that SLAs are the only way to ensure that the enterprise can get what it needs out of cloud providers, and get what it needs in the case of downtime. </p>
<p>So what do you think: Are cloud SLAs a thing of the past? Why or why not? </p>
<p>Share your thoughts and we&#8217;ll share 100 Knowledge Points!</p>
