Abstract.Recently, a lot of companies are increasingly introducing cloud
services for digital records management. The cloud services can dramatically
lower the cost of archiving and managing digital records and provides a foun-
dation for resilient management of digital records management, depending on
the circumstances of the enterprise. However, due to the nature of service
provided by third parties in the cloud, conflicting the nature of digital records
and the intrinsic risks inherent in the cloud, many companies are reluctant to
apply the cloud to their digital records management right away. In this paper, we
analyze the risk factors of the digital records in the cloud services and discuss
some alternative models to solve them.

1 Introduction
Cloud service refers to a service where users borrow as much as needed to pay the cost
for amount you have used through the internet (network) on the IT resources such as
computing, storage, software and network. Cloud services are emerging as the essential
issue in the information technology due to location-independent resource sharing,
availability via the Internet and mobile, on-demand services, and low cost.
Using cloud services, there are advantages of drastic cost reduction and preparation
of new business foundation. Cost savings are made possible by economy of scale
through cloud services, lowering initial investment costs for system implementation,
dynamic scalability and usage-based billing. By introducing cloud services, enterprise
agility could be dramatically improved by minimizing the time it takes to prepare
computing resources and by convenience of use. In addition, theflexibility, resiliency,
scalability and disaster prevention of cloud services greatly enhance the competitive-
ness of enterprises.
Currently, the explosive growth of digital contents including mobile, IoT and SNS
is driving most businesses to quickly move their computing system to cloud services,
and also is quickly moving e-documents and digital records to the cloud. In the near
future, most digital records will be surely produced, preserved and utilized based on
