We consider a cloud computing environment consisting of a cloud service provider (CSP), a data owner, and many users [few with read and few with both read/write permission]. The CSP maintains cloud infrastructures, which pool the bandwidth, storage space, and CPU power of many cloud servers to provide 24/7 services. The CSP mainly provides two services: data storage and re-encryption. After obtaining the encrypted data from the data owner, the CSP will store the data. On receiving a data access request from a user, the CSP will re-encrypt the ciphertext based on attributes, and return the re-encrypted ciphertext. The data owner outsources a set of data to the cloud. Each piece of data is encrypted before outsourcing. The data owner is responsible for determining the access structure for each data, and distributing secret keys to each user. When a user wishes to access data, he will first request appropriate keys from the data owner, and then request the CSP to download the ciphertext. If his access right is effective when he requests the data, he can successfully execute decryption. The data owner is the only one allowed to give read/write permission to users. Data users with write permission can perform the updations and even delete the data within their effective time period. A typical cloud environment is shown in Fig 1. Fig 1 A typical cloud environment 3.2 Design Goals The main objective of our scheme is to achieve, 1) Data confidentiality: The data is encrypted
Compared with the single-owner manner, where only the group manager can store andmodify data in the cloud, the multiple-owner manner is moreflexible in practical applications. More concretely, each userin the group is able to not only read data, but also modify his/her part of data in the entire data file shared by the
Ben Tenenbaum EUH3185 4/1/18 Viking Database Option 2: With so many powerful and influential Vikings it is hard to choose one to exemplify the group. With legends like Ragnar Lodbrok, Erik the red and Cnut the great it is a difficult choice to pick one above the rest. Each of these men each accomplished so much and brought about drastic consequences with their every move. However, it is the feats accomplished by Cnut that capture the most admiration. Cnut the Great is the Viking king that breaks the belief that Vikings were pure savages who only raided and pillaged.
Organizations use the Cloud in a variety of different service models (SaaS, PaaS, IaaS) and deployment models (Private, Public, Hybrid). There are a number of security issues/concerns associated with cloud computing but these issues fall into two broad categories: Security issues faced by cloud providers (organizations providing software-, platform-, or infrastructure-as-a-service via the cloud) and security issues faced by their customers.In most cases, the provider must ensure that their infrastructure is secure and that their clients’ data and applications are protected while the customer must ensure that the provider has taken the proper security measures to protect their information.
Usage of remote servers via internet to store, manage and process data instead of using a personal computer is known as Cloud computing. It’s a set of Information Technology services with the ability to scale up or down their service requirements. Most of the cloud services are provided by a third party service provider. In cloud computing, organizations can utilize IT services without in advance investment. Despite its benefits obtained from the cloud computing, the organizations are slow in accepting it due to security issues and challenges. Security is one of the major problems which hinder the growth of cloud. It’s not wise to handing over the important data to another company; such that clients need to be vigilant in understanding the risks of data infringement in this new environment. This paper discusses a detailed analysis of the cloud computing security issues and challenges. (Ayoleke)
I am ready. My friends and family are ready. America is ready for someone who is different and ready to lead. I believe Hillary Clinton is that person.
Throughout the depictions of creation in The Book of Genesis, Plato’s Timaeus, and Hesiod’s Works and Days, there is a recurring belief that the universe is as good as it can be. Each rendering gives different explanations as to why humans must face the challenges they do, but whether it be individual faults or ancestral ones, all three declare that humans are the cause of their own suffering. They illustrate an intrinsic human belief that the world is both good and has a purpose, and that the problems people face are derived from humans as a race getting in their own way.
From the viewpoint of data security, which has always been an important form of quality of service, Cloud computing surely poses new challenging security threats for number of reasons. Firstly, traditional cryptographic primitives for the purpose of data security protection cannot be straight accepted due to users loss control of data under cloud computing. Therefore, verification of correct data storage in the cloud must be attended without accurate knowledge of the whole data. Considering different kind of data for every user stored in the cloud and the requirement of long term continuous security of their data safety, the problem of checking correctness of data storage in the cloud becomes even more challenging.[1]
User can store their data on cloud and reveal from the local data storage and its maintenance. Cloud is in a distributive in nature includes shared pool of configuring resources both in hardware and software. As an increasing number of clients who store their
This chapter enumerates details on the different ways the data can be breached in cloud. Access to unlimited resources makes it easy for the attackers to crack the security protocols and all the encryptions algorithms deployed on the cloud server. The number of ways to breach in the privacy and security in the cloud is detailed in the chapter. Also in this chapter we will discuss the motives of an attacker.
Storage-as-a-service (Saas) offered by cloud service providers (CSPs) is a paid facility that enables organizations to outsource their sensitive data to be stored on remote servers. In this paper, we propose a cloud-based storage schemes that allows the data owner to benefit from the facilities offered by the CSP and enables indirect mutual trust between them. This Paper provides different authentication techniques and algorithms for cloud security.
Depending on the length of work that one would like to choose with, cloud computing offers four types of delivery models namely, “public cloud”, “private cloud”, “community cloud” and “hybrid cloud”. User is also free to choose the amount of control one would like to have on their data that is stored in the cloud. The cloud providers offer three types of services which give users different types of permissions. More permissions the user hold, the more control and privacy obtained on the data.
The impacts of cloud computing has touched almost every area of Information Technology. The information kept in the cloud is private and confidential and protected by laws that regulate it and protects it. The cloud providers faces laws that relate to the preservation of critical information touching on taxes, security, and sometime employment regulations. Also in other circumstances, they are forced to comply with laws requiring them to destroy such
The ever growing need for the data in Information technology organizations has always lead to invent new services to meet the data needs, whether it is in the form of software, platform, hardware or storage. Cloud computing provides this services to organizations with cost effective methodologies like pay per service, network access, on-demand self-service. Organizations no more have to worry about storage overhead. This services has made huge impact on the organizations business process (Q. Wang, C.Wang, and Ren) (2011). At the same time with increase in technological services, the ever growing services are restricted due to security. Organizations use storage as a service to store their data remotely over cloud however the security of data is not guaranteed which leads to problems like data integrity, data availability, and data correctness. Various models has been proposed to address this data integrity concern over cloud (Chakraborty, Dhami, bansal), (2013).
Abstract—The field of cloud computing has grown in popularity over the years with big software giants like Amazon, Microsoft and Google providing their own offerings. Some of features which make the cloud so attractive is the fact that it provides rapid elastically and easy scalability. Even though cloud adoption has been quite rapid, many of the business are reluctant to move to the cloud owing to the security and privacy concerns associated with the cloud. In this survey paper, we explore some of the security issues in cloud computing and the current efforts of the research community to tackle these issues.
While users want to have their data stored in the cloud, they need assurance that their data is secure and safe. In this research paper, we will describe in details a mechanism of tracking data usage using accountability. This mechanism ensures that any access of the data stored in the cloud is monitored, authorized and recorded. Accountability can be referred to as the process of checking the authorization policies to ensure transparency in data access. We will use the JAR programming to improve privacy and security of the data stored in the cloud. Using this technique, it is possible for the data owner to know whether the handling of data stored in the cloud is in line the agreed-upon service-level agreement.
