Security Issues

Cloud is considered as future of Information Technology. User can utilized the cloud on pay-as-you use basis. But many organizations are stringent about the adoption of cloud computing due to their concern regarding the security of the stored data. Therefore, issues related to security of data in the cloud have become very vital. Data security involves encrypting the data and ensuring that suitable policies are imposed for sharing those data. There are several data security issues which need to be addressed. These issues are: data integrity, data intrusion, service availability, confidentiality and non-repudiation. Many schemes have been proposed for ensuring data security in cloud environment. But the existing schemes lag in fulfilling all these data security issues. In this chapter, a new Third Party Auditor based scheme has been proposed for secured storage and retrieval of client's data to and from the cloud service provider. The scheme has been analysed and compared with some of the existing schemes with respect to the security issues. From the analysis and comparison it can be observed that the proposed scheme performs better than the existing schemes.

Confidentiality, Privacy and Protection of data (CPPD) are the major challenges in the cloud environment for cloud users such as industrials and organizations. Hence major companies are loath to migrate to cloud and also still using the private cloud because of lock in CPPD of cloud. Cloud Service Providers (CSP) are unable to elucidate strength of the storage and services due to lack of data security. To solve the above issue, we trust, algorithms are not the only solution for data security. In this regards, we suggest to change the architecture and develop a new mechanisms. In this paper, we are proposed two thinks. First is move to single cloud architecture to multiple cloud architecture and second is develop an innovative algorithm. And one more think also considered and proposed an inimitable mechanism to use an innovative algorithm in the multi cloud architecture for improving CPPD.

Access To Data

Implementing cloud computing provides many paths for web-based service. But, data security and privacy requirement become an important problem that limits several cloud applications. One of the key security and privacy concerns is the fact that cloud service suppliers have access to data. This concern greatly reduces the usability of cloud computing in many areas, such as financial business and government agencies. This paper focuses on this important issue and suggests a new approach, so cloud providers cannot directly access data. The proposed approach is divided into two sides: upload side and download side. In upload side, there is three stages, at the first stage; the transmitted file is splitted and then encrypted in order to achieve the data security requirement. At the second stage, the splitted data are integrity checked by MD5 algorithm, in order to achieve integrity requirement. At the third stage, the checked splitted data are stored separately in three -clouds, in order to achieve distribution requirement. In download side, also there is three stages. At the first stage, the data is retrieved from the three-clouds. At the second stage, data integrity is performed using MD5. At the third stage, data decryption and merging are done. The proposed approach is successfully implemented on (25 KB) image. The proposed model is successfully implemented in uploading side dependent on shares3 because provide high security with total time of (8.144 sec), and in downloading side with total side of (9.42).

The Impact

The widespread adoption of multi-cloud in enterprises is one of the root causes of cost-effectiveness. Cloud service providers reduce storage costs through advanced data de-duplication, which also provides vulnerabilities for attackers. Traditional approaches to authentication and data security for a single cloud need to be upgraded to be best suitable for cloud-to-cloud data migration security in order to mitigate the impact of dictionary and template attacks on authentication and data integrity, respectively. This paper proposes a scheme of user layer authentication along with lightweight cryptography. The proposed simulates its mathematical model to analyze the behavioral pattern of time-complexity of data security along with user auth protection. The performance pattern validates the model for scalability and reliability against both authentication and data integrity.

In Government Cloud Procurement, Kevin McGillivray explores the question of whether governments can adopt cloud computing services and still meet their legal requirements and other obligations to citizens. The book focuses on the interplay between the technical properties of cloud computing services and the complex legal requirements applicable to cloud adoption and use. The legal issues evaluated include data privacy law (GDPR and the US regime), jurisdictional issues, contracts, and transnational private law approaches to addressing legal requirements. McGillivray also addresses the unique position of governments when they outsource core aspects of their information and communications technology to cloud service providers. His analysis is supported by extensive research examining actual cloud contracts obtained through Freedom of Information Act requests. With the demand for cloud computing on the rise, this study fills a gap in legal literature and offers guidance to organizations considering cloud computing.
