Cloud computing has changed the corporate as well as educational industry ever since it evolved. Cloud computing is basically convenient, cost effective and on demand service offered to the clients. This can, for instance, lead to cost reserve funds, better resource usage and removing the need of specialized technical skill for the tenants. There are huge security concerns when utilizing cloud services. Security is extremely vital in cloud computing since individuals and organizations store private information in the cloud. It should likewise be not difficult to utilize the services provided, since cloud service providers have such a large number of tenants with diverse specialized background. Since the control of services and information required for the regular run of a organization is handled by third party providers, tenants needs to believe the third party cloud service provider, and trust that they handle their information in a right way, and resources are available as and when needed. Many approaches for authentication in cloud services have been proposed. They are either insecure, intricate or highly expensive. In this work we have carried of the comparative study of different authentication schemes in cloud computing finally summarize on the basis of different evaluation criteria.
