Standing on the bottom layer of a cloud computing environment, this paper carried out research on security of cloud infrastructure. It observed the statcof-thcart of cloud infrastructure security, analyzed security problems existing in cloud infrastructure from a wide perspective. In combination with a technical framework of cloud infrastructure security, it discussed principle key technictues of cloud infrastructure security. The motivation of the paper is to lay a solid ground for solving security problems in cloud infrastructure as well as in the whole cloud computing environment
