A Novel Design to Minimise the Energy Consumption and Node Traversing in Blockchain Over Cloud Using Ensemble Cuckoo Model

The article outlines the Blockchain’s behavioral model for services. Their reliability is proven through the use of experimental evidence. The authors highlight the major technical aspects and characteristics that are associated with the transmission of data through the network. The authors define the scheme for the network, which works with blockchain transactions, and the relationship between network characteristics on parameters used by the application. They examine the use of this model to identification of the blockchain service and also the likelihood of existing security mechanisms that are based on the technology being bypassed. Additionally, the article provides guidelines to conceal the Blockchain's traffic profile to make it more difficult for its detection in the information network. This study offers a thorough analysis of blockchain-based trust models applied to cloud computing. The paper highlights the challenges that remain unsolved and offers suggestions for future studies in the area based on new cloud-edge trust management system and double-blockchain structure, which is a cloud-based transaction model. The paper also identifies the existing challenges and offers suggestions for future studies in the area based on new cloud-edge trust management system and double-blockchain structure, which is a cloud-based transaction model. The flow of the network will be supported by models that are enhanced by cuckoo to frame the perfect network transform of data from one point to cluster, or alternatively

Efficient Method Based on Blockchain Ensuring Data Integrity Auditing with Deduplication in Cloud

With the rapid development of cloud storage, more and more cloud clients can store and access their data anytime, from anywhere and using any device. Data deduplication may be considered an excellent choice to ensure data storage efficiency. Although cloud technology offers many advantages for storage service, it also introduces security challenges, especially with regards to data integrity, which is one of the most critical elements in any system. A data owner should thus enable data integrity auditing mechanisms. Much research has recently been undertaken to deal with these issues. In this paper, we propose a novel blockchain-based method, which can preserve cloud data integrity checking with data deduplication. In our method, a mediator performs data deduplication on the client side, which permits a reduction in the amount of outsourced data and a decrease in the computation time and the bandwidth used between the enterprise and the cloud service provider. This method supports private and public auditability. Our method also ensures the confidentiality of a client's data against auditors during the auditing process

Blockchain & Multi-Agent System: A New Promising Approach for Cloud Data Integrity Auditing with Deduplication

Recently, data storage represents one of the most important services in Cloud Computing. The cloud provider should ensure two major requirements which are data integrity and storage efficiency. Blockchain data structure and the efficient data deduplication represent possible solutions to address these exigencies. Several approaches have been proposed, some of them implement deduplication in Cloud server side, which involves a lot of computation to eliminate the redundant data and it becomes more and more complex. Therefore, this paper proposed an efficient, reliable and secure approach, in which the authors propose a Multi-Agent System in order to manipulate deduplication technique that permits to reduce data volumes thereby reduce storage overhead. On the other side, the loss of physical control over data introduces security challenges such as data loss, data tampering and data modification. To solve similar problems, the authors also propose Blockchain as a database for storing metadata of client files. This database serves as logging database that ensures data integrity auditing function

An effective, secure and efficient tagging method for integrity protection of outsourced data in a public cloud storage

Data Integrity Auditing (DIA) is a security service for checking the integrity of data stored in a PCS (Public Cloud Storage), a third-party based storage service. A DIA service is provided by using integrity tags (hereafter referred to tags). This paper proposes a novel tagging method, called Tagging of Outsourced Data (TOD), for generating and verifying tags of files. TOD has a number of unique properties: (i) it supports both public and private verifiability, and achieves this property with a low level of overhead at the user end, making it particularly attractive to mobile users with resource-constrained devices, (ii) it protects data confidentiality, supports dynamic tags and is resilient against tag forgery and tag tampering (i.e. by authorised insiders) at the same time in more secure and efficient, making the method more suited to the PCS environment, (iii) it supports tags deduplication, making it more efficient, particularly for the user who has many files with data redundancy. Comprehensive security analysis and performance evaluation have been conducted to demonstrate the efficacy and efficiency of the approach taken in the design
