Cloud based Secure Storage of Files using Hybrid Cryptography and Image Steganography
Cloud Computing has made it possible to provide individuals as well as organizations with a utility that is costeffective. It empowers businesses by delivering these services using the internet. Files can be shared through the cloud. These files may contain sensitive information that needs to be kept hidden from anonymous users. This is done using cryptographic algorithms. High level of security can be provided using hybrid cryptography to encrypt the data. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and Triple Data Encryption Standard (3DES) are the symmetric key encryption algorithms used to secure. An asymmetric key encryption algorithm, Rivest-Shamir-Adleman (RSA) helps in providing a hybrid cryptography model. The security of the key generated can be further enhanced using image steganography method Least Significant Bit (LSB). These issues regarding the security and its challenges will be addressed in this paper and also analyse the measures to handle it.
