A comprehensive meta-analysis of cryptographic security mechanisms for cloud computing

The file attached to this record is the author's final peer reviewed version. The Publisher's final version can be found by following the DOI link.The concept of cloud computing offers measurable computational or information resources as a service over the Internet. The major motivation behind the cloud setup is economic benefits, because it assures the reduction in expenditure for operational and infrastructural purposes. To transform it into a reality there are some impediments and hurdles which are required to be tackled, most profound of which are security, privacy and reliability issues. As the user data is revealed to the cloud, it departs the protection-sphere of the data owner. However, this brings partly new security and privacy concerns. This work focuses on these issues related to various cloud services and deployment models by spotlighting their major challenges. While the classical cryptography is an ancient discipline, modern cryptography, which has been mostly developed in the last few decades, is the subject of study which needs to be implemented so as to ensure strong security and privacy mechanisms in today’s real-world scenarios. The technological solutions, short and long term research goals of the cloud security will be described and addressed using various classical cryptographic mechanisms as well as modern ones. This work explores the new directions in cloud computing security, while highlighting the correct selection of these fundamental technologies from cryptographic point of view

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

Secure Data Deduplication on Hybrid Cloud Storage Architecture

Data deduplication is one of the most important Data compression techniques used for to removing the identical copies of repeating data and it is used in the cloud storage for the purpose of reduce the storage space as well as save bandwidth. To retain the confidentiality of sensitive data while supporting the deduplication, to encrypt the data before outsourcing convergent encryption technique has been proposed . This project makes the first attempt to formally address the problem of authorized data deduplication giving better protect data security, Different from the traditional deduplication system, distinctive benefits of the user are further considered the duplicate check besides the data itself. Hybrid cloud architecture having various new deduplication constructions supporting authorized duplicate check. The proposed security models contain the illustration of security analysis scheme. As a proof of concept, contains the implementation framework of proposed authorized duplicate check scheme and conduct experiments using these prototype. In proposed system contain authorized duplicate check scheme sustain minimal overhead compared to normal operations. DOI: 10.17762/ijritcc2321-8169.15059

Secure data storage and retrieval in cloud computing

Nowadays cloud computing has been widely recognised as one of the most inuential information technologies because of its unprecedented advantages. In spite of its widely recognised social and economic benefits, in cloud computing customers lose the direct control of their data and completely rely on the cloud to manage their data and computation, which raises significant security and privacy concerns and is one of the major barriers to the adoption of public cloud by many organisations and individuals. Therefore, it is desirable to apply practical security approaches to address the security risks for the wide adoption of cloud computing
