Some cloud providers (Amazon, IBM) are ISO 27001 compliant.

Microsoft rack 1000s of servers into a container and the container is sealed until it's decommissioned.

It's a toss up between do you trust a cloud provider who's business depends on its reputation in terms of security and can devote a professional team dedicated to this purpose or your own IT guys looking after your servers in your premises (which won't be as physically secure as the cloud providers). I'd put my money on the former.What do you believe are the Security Impacts of using Cloud Computing?
