Abstract
Internal attacks in Cloud Computing refer to security threats that originate from within the

cloud infrastructure itself. To prevent internal attacks, cloud providers and organizations must

implement robust security measures such as access control policies, encryption, regular monitoring

of user activities, multi-factor authentication, and employee training on cybersecurity best

practices. This study focuses on enhancing security measures in Cloud Computing by detecting

internal attacks through the implementation of an Ensemble Deep Learning Model. The main goal

of this research is to develop a robust and efficient system that can accurately identify and mitigate

internal threats within Cloud Computing environments. The approach involves leveraging the

power of Ensemble Deep Learning, which combines multiple deep learning models to improve the

accuracy and reliability of attack detection algorithms. By effectively detecting internal attacks,

this model can help organizations protect sensitive data, maintain system integrity, and ensure the

uninterrupted operation of cloud-based services. The utilization of Ensemble Deep Learning in

detecting internal attacks in Cloud Computing has the potential to revolutionize cybersecurity

practices, offering advanced threat detection capabilities to safeguard digital assets. In conclusion,

this research aims to contribute to the ongoing efforts to enhance the security of Cloud Computing

infrastructures by introducing a sophisticated and proactive approach to identifying and mitigating

internal threats effectively.

Abstract
Managing a software project team involves coordinating and overseeing the individuals involved

in developing a software product. Effective software project team management involves

coordination, communication, collaboration, and leadership to guide the team toward achieving

project goals efficiently and successfully. This study addresses the crucial role of project team

management in the success of software projects and emphasizes the importance of prioritizing the

well-being and efficiency of the project team. The primary objective of this research is to highlight

how focusing on the project team's dynamics, communication, and collaboration can significantly

affect the overall success and timely delivery of software projects. The research explores key

strategies for enhancing software project team management, including fostering a positive team

culture, providing adequate resources and support, and promoting effective communication

channels. By prioritizing the project team's needs and optimizing their working environment,

organizations can expect improved productivity, reduced conflicts, increased motivation, and

ultimately higher success rates for their software projects. There will be a successful software

project where prioritizing the project team leads to significant improvements in project outcomes,

such as meeting deadlines, achieving quality deliverables, and enhancing client satisfaction.

Generally, this research underscores the critical link between effective project team management

and project success, advocating for a people-centric approach that recognizes the team as the

backbone of successful software project delivery.

Abstract
Securing data centers in cloud computing is crucial to protect sensitive information and ensure the

reliability of cloud services. A hybrid algorithm designed for less power consumption aims to

optimize energy efficiency while maintaining performance. The algorithm combines different

optimization techniques to achieve a balance between computational efficiency and reduced

energy consumption in applications such as IoT devices, mobile computing, and energy-

constrained systems. This research focuses on developing a hybrid algorithm aimed at reducing

power consumption in energy-intensive cloud computing data centers, addressing the growing

need for energy-efficient computing solutions. The study introduces a novel hybrid algorithm that

combines the strengths of different optimization techniques to optimize resource allocation,

workload distribution, and cooling mechanisms within cloud data centers. The primary goal of the

hybrid algorithm is to minimize energy consumption without compromising the performance and

reliability of cloud computing services, thereby reducing operational costs and environmental

impact. By implementing this algorithm, data centers can achieve significant reductions in energy

consumption, lower utility bills, and contribute to sustainability efforts by operating in a more

environmentally friendly manner. The performance evaluation metrics used to assess the

effectiveness of the hybrid algorithm, such as energy savings percentage, computational

efficiency, and overall system reliability. In general, this research presents a promising approach

to enhancing the energy efficiency of cloud computing data centers through the implementation of

a hybrid algorithm, paving the way for greener and more cost-effective operations in the realm of

cloud computing infrastructure.
