Secure Auditing and Maintaining Block Level Integrity with Reliability of Data in Cloud

Cloud storage systems are becoming increasingly popular and popular and the cloud computing is getting enhance day by day it needs to provide more security with secure auditing. For storing large and large amount of data in cloud, requires more space and data can be replicated which will increase the space and cost too unnecessarily. To avoid this deduplication needs to be done. So , in this paper, pondering the main issue of honesty and secure deduplication on cloud information. Specifically, going for achieving both information uprightness as well as deduplication in cloud. And in this paper, proposing the algorithm which will audit securely and provide block level deduplication as well as it will maintain reliability of data in clou

A Dynamic Proxy Oriented Approach for Remote Data Integrity checking along with Secure Deduplication in Cloud

In Cloud computing users store data over remote servers instead of computer�s hard drive. This leads to several security problems since data is out of the control of the user. So, to protect against the security attacks and to preserve the data integrity in the cloud, Huaqun Wang et.al proposed proxy oriented remote data integrity checking (RDIC). However, this scheme only focuses on one-way validation i.e clients have to know whether their files are stored integrally in the cloud. But this scheme does not address the problem of duplication which is essential with increasing demand for cloud storage. And as users are untrusted from the perspective of the server, there is a need to prove the ownership of the files. The proposed work considers the requirement of mutual validation. In this paper we propose a new construction of Identity based RDIC along with secure deduplication. The proposed scheme avoids burden of complex key management and flexible as it support anyone to verify the contents of the data apart from the data owner and incurs less computation cost as token generation is done by the proxy instead of user

What if keys are leaked? Towards practical and secure re-encryption in deduplication-based cloud storage

By only storing a unique copy of duplicate data possessed by different data owners, deduplication can significantly reduce storage cost, and hence is used broadly in public clouds. When combining with confidentiality, deduplication will become problematic as encryption performed by different data owners may differentiate identical data which may then become not deduplicable. The Message-Locked Encryption (MLE) is thus utilized to derive the same encryption key for the identical data, by which the encrypted data are still deduplicable after being encrypted by different data owners. As keys may be leaked over time, re-encrypting outsourced data is of paramount importance to ensure continuous confidentiality, which, however, has not been well addressed in the literature. In this paper, we design SEDER, a SEcure client-side Deduplication system enabling Efficient Re-encryption for cloud storage by (1) leveraging all-or-nothing transform (AONT), (2) designing a new delegated re-encryption (DRE), and (3) proposing a new proof of ownership scheme for encrypted cloud data (PoWC). Security analysis and experimental evaluation validate security and efficiency of SEDER, respectively

An extensive research survey on data integrity and deduplication towards privacy in cloud storage

Owing to the highly distributed nature of the cloud storage system, it is one of the challenging tasks to incorporate a higher degree of security towards the vulnerable data. Apart from various security concerns, data privacy is still one of the unsolved problems in this regards. The prime reason is that existing approaches of data privacy doesn't offer data integrity and secure data deduplication process at the same time, which is highly essential to ensure a higher degree of resistance against all form of dynamic threats over cloud and internet systems. Therefore, data integrity, as well as data deduplication is such associated phenomena which influence data privacy. Therefore, this manuscript discusses the explicit research contribution toward data integrity, data privacy, and data deduplication. The manuscript also contributes towards highlighting the potential open research issues followed by a discussion of the possible future direction of work towards addressing the existing problems

Secure Multilevel Data Authentication System in Cloud Environment

Dynamic Proof of Storage is a useful cryptographic primitive that enables a user to check the integrity of outsourced files and to efficiently update the files in a cloud server. Though researchers have planned several dynamic PoS schemes in single user environments, the matter in multi-user environments has not been investigated sufficiently. A sensible multi-user cloud storage system wants the secure client-side cross-user de-duplication technique, that permits a user to skip the uploading method and procure the possession of the files now, once alternative house owners of an equivalent files have uploaded them to the cloud server. To the simplest of our data, none of the present dynamic PoS will support this system. during this paper, we have a tendency to introduce the conception of de-duplicatable dynamic proof of storage associated propose an economical construction referred to as DeyPoS, to realize dynamic PoS and secure cross-user duplication, at the same time. Considering the challenges of structure diversity and personal tag generation, we have a tendency to exploit a unique tool referred to as Homomorphic Authenticated Tree (HAT). We have a tendency to prove the protection of our construction, and therefore the theoretical analysis and experimental results show that our construction is economical in follow

Disposing of Duplicate Data with Dynamic PoS for Multi User Environment

Dynamic Proof of Storage (PoS) is a profitable custom that empowers a customer to see the respectability of outsourced reports and invigorate the records in a cloud server with an extraordinarily compelling way. Despite the likelihood that a couple of agents have formed unmistakable dynamic PoS in unit customer circumstances, however the inconvenience in multi-customer conditions has not been asked inside and out. A shrewd multi-customer appropriated capacity structure needs the ensured client side cross-customer deduplication framework, that gives a customer to avoid the exchanging strategy and getting the responsibility for records now, once resulting proprietors of a similar archives have exchanged them to the cloud server. To minimal complex of our data, no other present dynamic PoS will support this system. In this paper, we are talented to exhibit the possibility of deduplicatable dynamic check of limit related propose a saving improvement suggested as DeyPoS, to recognize dynamic PoS and secure cross-customer duplication, meanwhile. Considering the troubles of structure contrasts and individual name period, we tend to abuse an exceptional instrument insinuated as Homomorphic Authenticated Tree (HAT). We have a tendency to show the protection of our advancement

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 efficient confidentiality-preserving Proof of Ownership for deduplication

Data storage in the cloud is becoming widespread. Deduplication is a key mechanism to decrease the operating costs cloud providers face, due to the reduction of replicated data storage. Nonetheless, deduplication must deal with several security threats such as honest-but-curious servers or malicious users who may try to take ownership of files they are not entitled to. Unfortunately, state-of-the-art solutions present weaknesses such as not coping with honest-but-curious servers, deployment problems, or lacking a sound security analysis. In this paper we present a novel Proof of Ownership scheme that uses convergent encryption and requires neither trusted third parties nor complex key management. The experimental evaluation highlights the efficiency and feasibility of our proposal that is proven to be secure under the random oracle model in the bounded leakage setting. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd.
