Ensuring Data Storage Security in Cloud Computing

Abstract

Cloud computing is the best invention of the twenty first century. It has given a whole new structure to IT companies. It has changed the way employment works in the IT industry – it has generated a whole new set of careers such as from architects and developers to data scientists, security pros and more, all of which require a specific focus. And for the users, the increasing network bandwidth and reliable yet flexible network connections make it even possible that users can now subscribe high quality services from data and software that reside solely on remote data centers. Through this project we address the flip side of this important invention- Security. Even though cloud services offer plethora of benefits, still these benefits come with many security issues – like data corruption, loss etc. In this project we have used data encryption and duplicity techniques to offer data redundancy and correctness. This system gives a reflective insight into the cloud security system. It is shown that how user maintains his resources, how new users are registered onto the system, how the admin uses the IP restriction process to filter the connections with the server, how the admin can manage and use his control panel for security purposes. By using the homomorphic token with distributed verification of erasure-coded data, our scheme achieves the storage correctness
