A Study On Secure Data Storage In Public Clouds

This paper focuses on the study of various existing cloud storage mechanisms with their related security frameworks for realizing the efficient cloud storage in a secured environment. The key feature for the growing popularity of cloud computing relies on the efficient management of stored data in a highly secure way for remote accessing. Ensuring the integrity and availability of user’s data stored in the cloud has always been an important aspect for its quality of service. While storing data in cloud, lots of issues with respect to security are being cropping out as clients have no direct physical control over their outsourced data. In addition, their vulnerabilities to external threats are increasing as cloud provides storage and accessing services via world-wide domain networking. This study will help in identifying different performance measures for secure available of data in cloud storage mechanisms

ASIDSDCCE - A Survey on to Improve Data Security and Data Confidentiality in Cloud Computing Environment

Cloud computing refers delivery of computing services such as servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics and so on. The several organizations providing these computing services are called cloud providers and typically charge for cloud computing services based on usage.

The essential characteristics are on-demand self-service location-independent resource pooling, broad network access, rapid resource elasticity, and measured service. The main three service models are software as service, platform as a service, and infrastructure as a service. The aim of this survey is to improve the data security and data confidentiality through rectifying the problem in cloud computing environment

Review and analysis of networking challenges in cloud computing

Cloud Computing offers virtualized computing, storage, and networking resources, over the Internet, to organizations and individual users in a completely dynamic way. These cloud resources are cheaper, easier to manage, and more elastic than sets of local, physical, ones. This encourages customers to outsource their applications and services to the cloud. The migration of both data and applications outside the administrative domain of customers into a shared environment imposes transversal, functional problems across distinct platforms and technologies. This article provides a contemporary discussion of the most relevant functional problems associated with the current evolution of Cloud Computing, mainly from the network perspective. The paper also gives a concise description of Cloud Computing concepts and technologies. It starts with a brief history about cloud computing, tracing its roots. Then, architectural models of cloud services are described, and the most relevant products for Cloud Computing are briefly discussed along with a comprehensive literature review. The paper highlights and analyzes the most pertinent and practical network issues of relevance to the provision of high-assurance cloud services through the Internet, including security. Finally, trends and future research directions are also presented

Enhancing Data Security for Cloud Computing Applications through Distributed Blockchain-based SDN Architecture in IoT Networks

Blockchain (BC) and Software Defined Networking (SDN) are some of the most prominent emerging technologies in recent research. These technologies provide security, integrity, as well as confidentiality in their respective applications. Cloud computing has also been a popular comprehensive technology for several years. Confidential information is often shared with the cloud infrastructure to give customers access to remote resources, such as computation and storage operations. However, cloud computing also presents substantial security threats, issues, and challenges. Therefore, to overcome these difficulties, we propose integrating Blockchain and SDN in the cloud computing platform. In this research, we introduce the architecture to better secure clouds. Moreover, we leverage a distributed Blockchain approach to convey security, confidentiality, privacy, integrity, adaptability, and scalability in the proposed architecture. BC provides a distributed or decentralized and efficient environment for users. Also, we present an SDN approach to improving the reliability, stability, and load balancing capabilities of the cloud infrastructure. Finally, we provide an experimental evaluation of the performance of our SDN and BC-based implementation using different parameters, also monitoring some attacks in the system and proving its efficacy.Comment: 12 Pages 16 Figures 3 Table

A Comprehensive Survey on the Cooperation of Fog Computing Paradigm-Based IoT Applications: Layered Architecture, Real-Time Security Issues, and Solutions

The Internet of Things (IoT) can enable seamless communication between millions of billions of objects. As IoT applications continue to grow, they face several challenges, including high latency, limited processing and storage capacity, and network failures. To address these stated challenges, the fog computing paradigm has been introduced, purpose is to integrate the cloud computing paradigm with IoT to bring the cloud resources closer to the IoT devices. Thus, it extends the computing, storage, and networking facilities toward the edge of the network. However, data processing and storage occur at the IoT devices themselves in the fog-based IoT network, eliminating the need to transmit the data to the cloud. Further, it also provides a faster response as compared to the cloud. Unfortunately, the characteristics of fog-based IoT networks arise traditional real-time security challenges, which may increase severe concern to the end-users. However, this paper aims to focus on fog-based IoT communication, targeting real-time security challenges. In this paper, we examine the layered architecture of fog-based IoT networks along working of IoT applications operating within the context of the fog computing paradigm. Moreover, we highlight real-time security challenges and explore several existing solutions proposed to tackle these challenges. In the end, we investigate the research challenges that need to be addressed and explore potential future research directions that should be followed by the research community.©2023 The Authors.

Smart Detection of Cardiovascular Disease Using Gradient Descent Optimization

The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is the networking of health things or equipment that communicate data over the internet without the need for human involvement in the healthcare field. A large quantity of data is collected from numerous sensors in the health field, and it is all transferred and stored on the cloud. This data is growing bigger here all time, and it's becoming increasingly challenging to secure it on the cloud with real-time storage and computing. Data security problem can be addressed with the aid of machine algorithms and fog computing. For data security in IoMT gadgets correspondence in an intelligent fashion, an intelligent encryption algorithm (IEA) is proposed using blockchain technology in cloud based system framework (CBSF). It is applied on patient’s database to provide immutable security, tampering prevention and transaction transparency at the fog layer in IoMT.  The suggested expert system's results indicate that it is suitable for use in for the security.
