Nowadays, an increasing number of cloud users including both individuals and enterprises store their Internet of things data in cloud for benefits like cost saving. However, the cloud storage service is often regarded to be untrusted due to their loss of direct control over the data. Hence, it is necessary to verify the integrity of their data on cloud storage servers via a third party. In real cloud systems, it is very important to improve the performance of the auditing protocol. Hence, the well-designed and cost-effective auditing protocol is expected to meet with the performance requirement while the data size is very large in real cloud systems. In this article, we also propose an auditing protocol based on pairing-based cryptography, which can reduce the computation cost compared to the state-of-the-art third-party auditing protocol. Moreover, we also study how to determine the number of sectors to achieve the optimal performance of our auditing protocol in a case of the same challenged data. And an equation for computing the optimal number of sectors is proposed to further improve the performance of our auditing protocol. Both the mathematical analysis method and experiment results show that our solution is more efficient.

Cloud computing has been envisioned as the definite and concerning solution to the rising storage costs of IT Enterprises. There are many cloud computing initiatives from IT giants such as Google, Amazon, Microsoft, IBM. Integrity monitoring is essential in cloud storage for the same reasons that data integrity is critical for any data centre. Data integrity is defined as the accuracy and consistency of stored data, in absence of any alteration to the data between two updates of a file or record.  In order to ensure the integrity and availability of data in Cloud and enforce the quality of cloud storage service, efficient methods that enable on-demand data correctness verification on behalf of cloud users have to be designed. To overcome data integrity problem, many techniques are proposed under different systems and security models. This paper will focus on some of the integrity proving techniques in detail along with their advantages and disadvantages.

<p>Cloud based service provider are at its top of its services for various applications, as their services are very much reachable from anywhere anytime in current days. It is responsibility of the company that the Cloud storage is owned and maintained by themselves keeping the data available and accessible, and the physical environment protected and running. Could storage provider seem to be uncertain of confidentiality in many cases, as we need to limit ourselves on trust to a third party. Keeping our sensitive data ready to access any time anywhere with preventing any information leakage is a challenging task. Cryptography in this scenario plays an important role, providing security for information to protect valuable information resources on intranets, Internet and the cloud. In addition, Homomorphic cryptosystem is a form of Cryptography where some specific computation can be performed over the cipher text producing a resultant cipher text which, when decrypted, equals the result of operations carry out on the plaintext. With help of this unique property of homomorphism cryptography we proposed a system to keep sensitive information in encrypted form in the cloud storage/service provider and used those data as whenever we require. The scheme proposed here is designed for a secure online voting system on Android platform and voted information is encrypted and stored those in the cloud.</p>

Cloud Data Storage

Cloud storage service is one of the vital function of cloud computing that helps cloud users to outsource a massive volume of data without upgrading their devices. However, cloud data storage offered by Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) faces data redundancy problems. The data de-duplication technique aims to eliminate redundant data segments and keeps a single instance of the data set, even if similar data set is owned by any number of users. Since data blocks are distributed among the multiple individual servers, the user needs to download each block of the file before reconstructing the file, which reduces the system efficiency. We propose a server level data recover module in the cloud storage system to improve file access efficiency and reduce network bandwidth utilization time. In the proposed method, erasure coding is used to store blocks in distributed cloud storage and The MD5 (Message Digest 5) is used for data integrity. Executing recover algorithm helps user to directly fetch the file without downloading each block from the cloud servers. The proposed scheme improves the time efficiency of the system and quick access ability to the stored data. Thus consumes less network bandwidth and reduces user processing overhead while data file is downloading.

The Internet of Things (IoT) comprises of various smart devices which are networked together to detect, accumulate, process, improve and interchange significant data over the Internet. IoT has improved our lifestyle by offering various applications such as intelligent home, smart healthcare, traffic monitoring and smart city devices. The IoT devices have restriction of power, battery life, memory and network constraints, so cloud can be used for accumulating and analyzing the IoT data. Due to the considerable increase in data transfer over Internet and other devices, the confidential information from the IoT sources required to be secure from any third party access. Cloud computing (CC) on the other side provides a protected, abrupt and advantageous data storage and computing services all over the internet. The integration of both these technologies can prove to be beneficial for each other. Therefore, we need an efficient and authentic method for secure communication in the IoT and cloud based big data environment. This paper provides a review of amalgamation of the IoT and cloud by featuring the implementation challenges and integration benefits.

User Focus

As information technology develops, cloud storage has been widely accepted for keeping volumes of data. Remote data auditing scheme enables cloud user to confirm the integrity of her outsourced file via the auditing against cloud storage, without downloading the file from cloud. In view of the significant computational cost caused by the auditing process, outsourced auditing model is proposed to make user outsource the heavy auditing task to third party auditor (TPA). Although the first outsourced auditing scheme can protect against the malicious TPA, this scheme enables TPA to have read access right over user’s outsourced data, which is a potential risk for user data privacy. In this paper, we introduce the notion of User Focus for outsourced auditing, which emphasizes the idea that lets user dominate her own data. Based on User Focus, our proposed scheme not only can prevent user’s data from leaking to TPA without depending on data encryption but also can avoid the use of additional independent random source that is very difficult to meet in practice. We also describe how to make our scheme support dynamic updates. According to the security analysis and experimental evaluations, our proposed scheme is provably secure and significantly efficient.
