In this paper, we propose the Euclidean Distance based Similarity Measurement and Ensuing Ranking (EDSMER) scheme to aid effective document search from outsourced cloud data. It is another attempt to find an alternative to binary based approaches. In this approach, the User or the Data owner needs to filter out the suitable keywords for the document and then the index is prepared. To provide security and privacy, both the data and the index are encrypted and moved to the cloud space. The application of Euclidean Distance based Similarity Measurement and Ensuing Ranking (EDSMER) scheme for document searching takes place after the authorized user requests for the documents through query terms. Initially the authorized user sends a query to Cloud Service Provider to retrieve all the documents which are mapped with the keywords provided by him. The proposed algorithm calculates the distance between the query terms and the index terms. The minimum the distance, the more it is closer towards each other and vice-versa.  Our Euclidean Distance based Similarity Measurement and Ensuing Ranking (EDSMER) scheme greatly enhances the system functionality by sending the most relevant documents instead of transmitting all documents back. The experimental validations are performed on RFC and FIRE dataset. Through experimental analysis, we prove that our proposed approach is secure and efficient as well as exhibits better recall and precision rate in the IR system to deal with the document-retrieval process.

Data Collaboration

Data collaboration in cloud computing is more and more popular nowadays, and proxy deployment schemes are employed to realize cross-cloud data collaboration. However, data security and privacy are the most serious issues that would raise great concerns from users when they adopt cloud systems to handle data collaboration. Different cryptographic techniques are deployed in different cloud service providers, which makes cross-cloud data collaboration to be a deeper challenge. In this paper, we propose an adaptive secure cross-cloud data collaboration scheme with identity-based cryptography (IBC) and proxy re-encryption (PRE) techniques. We first present a secure cross-cloud data collaboration framework, which protects data confidentiality with IBC technique and transfers the collaborated data in an encrypted form by deploying a proxy close to the clouds. We then provide an adaptive conditional PRE protocol with the designed full identity-based broadcast conditional PRE algorithm, which can achieve flexible and conditional data re-encryption among ciphertexts encrypted in identity-based encryption manner and ciphertexts encrypted in identity-based broadcast encryption manner. The extensive analysis and experimental evaluations demonstrate the well security and performance of our scheme, which meets the secure data collaboration requirements in cross-cloud scenarios.

Cloud Computing is a boon to the field of information and technology. The two major elements of client worries are Data security and Privacy Protection. Data may be revised and improved when client stores the information in the cloud so there might be danger of data loss. Therefore client information is moved to the data hub which cannot be controlled by the clients. Hence high safety efforts are required to secure data inside the cloud. Here data is divided into fragments and they are converted into encrypted file. This encrypted file is issued to arbitrarily chosen cloud service providers by the cloud data owners. Even after the successful attack, attackers do not get the meaning full information. If cloud data clients access to get any document that relating to encrypted file is regenerated from the fragments and clients must download it. When the applicant coordinates the strategy with the original details, then only file can be decoded. Therefore it demonstrates that prospective strategy improves the data integrity and confidentiality.

Cloud computing has emerged as a new promising field in the internet. It can be thought as a new architecture for the next generation of IT enterprises. It allows the user to access virtualized resources over the internet which can be dynamically scaled. Here, the owner's data is stored at a distributed data centre, which are responsible for its security constraints such as access control and data transmission to user. As the owner does not have physical access on their own data, the data centres are not trustworthy, this resulted in the cloud data security demand. Today, many cloud service providers (CSPs) are using the asymmetric and public key cryptography (PKG) for authenticating and data security purposes using the digital identity of the user. To this end, this article focuses on cloud data storage and its delivery to authorized user. For this purpose, a hierarchal identity-based cryptography method is used for data security and checking the data integrity, in order to make sure that there is no alteration or modification done by a malicious attacker or CSP for its own benefit.

Cloud computing and cloud data storage have become important applications on the Internet. An important trend in cloud computing and cloud data storage is group collaboration since it is a great inducement for an entity to use a cloud service, especially for an international enterprise. In this paper we propose a cloud data storage scheme with some protocols to support group collaboration. A group of users can operate on a set of data collaboratively with dynamic data update supported. Every member of the group can access, update and verify the data independently. The verification can also be authorized to a third-party auditor for convenience.

Comparable Encryption

User authentication has been widely deployed to prevent unauthorized access in the new era of Internet of Everything (IOE). When user passes the legal authentication, he/she can do series of operations in database. We mainly concern issues of data security and comparable queries over ciphertexts in IOE. In traditional database, a Short Comparable Encryption (SCE) scheme has been widely used by authorized users to conduct comparable queries over ciphertexts, but existing SCE schemes still incur high storage and computational overhead as well as economic burden. In this paper, we first propose a basic Short Comparable Encryption scheme based on sliding window method (SCESW), which can significantly reduce computational and storage burden as well as enhance work efficiency. Unfortunately, as the cloud service provider is a semitrusted third party, public auditing mechanism needs to be furnished to protect data integrity. To further protect data integrity and reduce management overhead, we present an enhanced SCESW scheme based on position-aware Merkle tree, namely, PT-SCESW. Security analysis proves that PT-SCESW and SCESW schemes can guarantee completeness and weak indistinguishability in standard model. Performance evaluation indicates that PT-SCESW scheme is efficient and feasible in practical applications, especially for smarter and smaller computing devices in IOE.

Cloud computing has been envisioned as the next generation architecture of IT enterprise. It moves the application software and databases to the centralized large data centers where management of data and services may not be fully trustworthy. This unique paradigm brings out many new security challenges like, maintaining correctness and integrity of data in cloud. Integrity of cloud data may be lost due to unauthorized access, modification or deletion of data. Lacking of availability of data may be due to the cloud service providers (CSP), in order to increase their margin of profit by reducing the cost, CSP may discard rarely accessed data without detecting in timely fashion. To overcome above issues, flexible distributed storage, token utilizing, signature creations used to ensure integrity of data, auditing mechanism used assists in maintaining the correctness of data and also locating, identifying of server where exactly the data has been corrupted and also dependability and availability of data achieved through distributed storage of data in cloud. Further in order to ensure authorized access to cloud data a admin module has been proposed in our previous conference paper, which prevents unauthorized users from accessing data and also selective storage scheme based on different parameters of cloud servers proposed in previous paper, in order to provide efficient storage of data in the cloud. In order to provide more efficiency in this paper dynamic data operations are supported such as updating, deletion and addition of data.

Proliferation of large number of cloud users steered the exponential increase in number and size of the data centers. These data centers are energy hungry and put burden for cloud service provider in terms of electricity bills. There is environmental concern too, due to large carbon foot print. A lot of work has been done on reducing the energy requirement of data centers using optimal use of CPUs. Virtualization has been used as the core technology for optimal use of computing resources using VM migration. However, networking devices also contribute significantly to the responsible for the energy dissipation. We have proposed a two level energy optimization method for the data center to reduce energy consumption by keeping SLA. VM migration has been performed for optimal use of physical machines as well as switches used to connect physical machines in data center. Results of experiments conducted in CloudSim on PlanetLab data confirm superiority of the proposed method over existing methods using only single level optimization.

Proposed Model

The main goal of any data storage model on the cloud is accessing data in an easy way without risking its security. A security consideration is a major aspect in any cloud data storage model to provide safety and efficiency. In this paper, we propose a secure data protection model over the cloud. The proposed model presents a solution to some security issues of cloud such as data protection from any violations and protection from a fake authorized identity user, which adversely affects the security of the cloud. This paper includes multiple issues and challenges with cloud computing that impairs security and privacy of data. It presents the threats and attacks that affect data residing in the cloud. Our proposed model provides the benefits and effectiveness of security in cloud computing such as enhancement of the encryption of data in the cloud. It provides security and scalability of data sharing for users on the cloud computing. Our model achieves the security functions over cloud computing such as identification and authentication, authorization, and encryption. Also, this model protects the system from any fake data owner who enters malicious information that may destroy the main goal of cloud services. We develop the one-time password (OTP) as a logging technique and uploading technique to protect users and data owners from any fake unauthorized access to the cloud. We implement our model using a simulation of the model called Next Generation Secure Cloud Server (NG-Cloud). These results increase the security protection techniques for end user and data owner from fake user and fake data owner in the cloud.

Cloud computing enables users to accumulate their sensitive data into cloud service providers to achieve scalable services on-demand. Outstanding security requirements arising from this means of data storage and management include data security and privacy. Attribute-based Encryption (ABE) is an efficient encryption system with fine-grained access control for encrypting out-sourced data in cloud computing. Since data outsourcing systems require flexible access control approach Problems arises when sharing confidential corporate data in cloud computing. User-Identity needs to be managed globally and access policies can be defined by several authorities. Data is dual encrypted for more security and to maintain De-Centralization in Multi-Authority environment.
