**7. Conclusion**

According to our findings and our recommendations having a private cloud, setup is best suited for the larger organizations due to the limitations of going on public cloud infrastructure in terms of bandwidth, data confidentiality, cost of Internet, and cost of its recommended with requirements for infrastructure itself on a public cloud. Setting up a private cloud helps organizations to mitigate risk with confidence and keep 100% control changes to the platform. However, not forgetting the security risks associated with a private cloud infrastructure in areas such as web application firewalls, web security gateways, main gateway firewall, end point security protection, etc., it is essential to have these security appliances implemented with the infrastructure to maintain and protect the cloud environment from outside threats.
