Cover Story: This paper reviews, highlights, and discusses some of the common cloud computing vulnerabilities primarily related to virtualization platforms and their implementations while outsourcing services and resources to different end-users and business enterprises. Blockchain-enabled solutions are presented for virtualized cloud platforms involving both the end-users and cloud service providers (CSP) to address and solve various security and privacy-related vulnerabilities in cloud computing infrastructures. These solutions help the data center industry to improve their virtualized cloud services and resource provisioning facilities. View this paper
