...Do I Trust Google? An Exploration of How People Form Trust in Cloud Computing Sarah Kim University of Texas at Austin 1616 Guadalupe Suite #5.202 Austin, TX 78701-1213 srhkim@gmail.com ABSTRACT Ayoung Yoon University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill 216 Lenoir Dr. CB #3360 100 Manning Hall, Chapel Hill, NC 27599 ayyoon@email.unc.edu journalists, IT experts, and scholars have addressed challenges of trust in cloud computing often accompanied with concerns for security, privacy, diminishing user control, lack of transparency, and reputation issues (e.g., Ghosh & Arce, 2010; Kahn & Malluhi, 2010; Pearson & Benameur, 2010; Habib, Ries, & Muhlhauser, 2010). Many of the trust-related discussions, however, are often based on the viewpoints of service developers/providers or technology focused (e.g., Hwang & Li, 2010). Cloud service providers (CSPs) saying “trust me” does not necessarily motivate people to respond with “I trust you.” Understanding of users’ thoughts on trust issues in the cloud computing environment is necessary in order to build and preserve trust between users and cloud service providers. PURPOSE OF RESEARCH The present study explores individual end-users’ perspectives of cloud computing, especially issues regarding their trust/distrust of cloud services. While current cloud computing service development focuses on adoption by enterprises and organizations, individual endusers who use cloud services in their everyday lives also constitute an important consumer...

...Disclosure and transparency According to McGee (2009), the corporate governance framework should ensure timely and accurate disclosure is made of all material matters regarding the corporation, including the financial situation, performance, ownership and governance of the company. According to IOSCO (2010), disclosure and transparency are critical elements of a robust corporate governance framework as they provide the basis for informed decision-making by stakeholders. High quality disclosure and transparency helps the public understand the company’s activities, policies and performance with regard to environmental and ethical standards as well as the relationship of the company with the stakeholders. The Global Financial Crisis has demonstrated how poor quality disclosure and lack of transparency can mask excessive risk-taking and leveraging by global financial institutions. Hence, high quality disclosure and transparency not only serves to protect investors but helps regulators in maintaining market confidence and systemic stability. The strengthening of disclosures and transparency involves actions by a range of market participants as it covers processes from verification, the determination of information for the publication and communication. Quantitative and qualitative corporate information is then disseminated through various periodic reports such as the annual and quarterly reports, other disclosures and through various media or other stakeholder engagement sessions...
