You are a Cloud architect for a Fortune 500 company with offices in multiple countries, but headquartered in the U.S. Your CIO asked you to evaluate three Cloud vendors and provide a report on strengths and weaknesses of each vendor in the area of data security. Your report should include any three Cloud vendors popular in the U.S. with a global foot print. Based on your findings, recommend a preferred vendor and support your recommendation. 

Your paper should be 5-6 pages in length and conform to CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements. Include at least two scholarly references in addition to the course textbook.  The CSU-Global Library is a good place to find these references.
