Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) is a recent technological development, which has emerged from two popular technology trends; mobile computing and cloud. In essence it revolutionises the capabilities of mobile devices by integrating both storage and processing of the cloud environment with mobile computing and in doing so providing greater optimisation and operating power, allowing for transparent and seamless use of resources provided by the cloud. However, expanding the capability of resource constrained mobile devices in this manner comes at a price. There are many risks associated with the security of data within the cloud environment and as MCC essentially uses the cloud, it also inherits any security issues that are associated with cloud computing. The aim of this survey is to identify potential data security issues, and analyse and present some pioneering security mechanisms and finally suggest some future directions for better data security with MCC.

With the recent advances in cloud computing and the improvement in the capabilities of mobile devices in terms of speed, storage, and computing power, Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) is emerging as one of important branches of cloud computing. MCC is an extension of cloud computing with the support of mobility. In this paper, the authors first present the specific concerns and key challenges in mobile cloud computing. They then discuss the different approaches to tackle the main issues in MCC that have been introduced so far, and finally focus on describing the proposed overall architecture of a middleware that will contribute to providing mobile users data storage and processing services based on their mobile devices capabilities, availability, and usage. A prototype of the middleware is developed and three scenarios are described to demonstrate how the middleware performs in adapting the provision of cloud web services by transforming SOAP messages to REST and XML format to JSON, in optimizing the results by extracting relevant information, and in improving the availability by caching. Initial analysis shows that the mobile cloud middleware improves the quality of service for mobiles, and provides lightweight responses for mobile cloud services.

Mobile Cloud Computing is a combination of general Cloud Computing and Mobile Computing in which we have to access resources from the remote cloud data center with the help of mobile electronics and peripherals like mobile smartphones, laptops, gadgets, etc. via Cellular Technology or Wireless Communication. Mobile devices have lots of resource constraints like storage capacity, processing speed, and battery life. Hence through simple mobile computing software and programming, we cannot manipulate on mobile devices of cloud data center information. Because of such kinds of difficulty, we have to process information or data through external mobile devices. Accessing and processing of data with the help of Trusted Third Party Agency (TPA) outside the cloud data center and mobile devices have lots of security challenges. To make cloud data secure over outside resources, lots of terminologies and theory are put forward by various researchers. In this paper, we will analyze their theory and its limitations and offer our security algorithm proposal. In this thesis article, we analyze the security framework for storing data on Cloud Server by Mobile and limitation of this process. Also, we review the theory of how data can be secure our data on cloud administrators

In recent years, the mobile devices become popular for communication and running advanced real time applications such as face reorganization and online games. Although, mobile devices advanced for providing significant benefits for mobile users. But still, these devices suffers with limited recourses such as computation power, battery and storage space due to the portable size. However, The Cloud Technology overcome the limitations of mobile computing with better performance and recourses. The cloud technology provides enough computing recourses to run mobile applications as storage computing power on cloud platform.

Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC)’s rapid technological advancements facilitate various computational-intensive applications on smart mobile devices. However, such applications are constrained by limited processing power, energy consumption, and storage capacity of smart mobile devices. To mitigate these issues, computational offloading is found to be the one of the promising techniques as it offloads the execution of computation-intensive applications to cloud resources. In addition, various kinds of cloud services and resourceful servers are available to offload computationally intensive tasks. However, their processing speeds, access delays, computation capability, residual memory and service charges are different which retards their usage, as it becomes time-consuming and ambiguous for making decisions. To address the aforementioned issues, this paper presents a Fuzzy Simplified Swarm Optimization based cloud Computational Offloading (FSSOCO) algorithm to achieve optimum multisite offloading. Fuzzy logic and simplified swarm optimization are employed for the identification of high powerful nodes and task decomposition respectively. The overall performance of FSSOCO is validated using the Specjvm benchmark suite and compared with the state-of-the-art offloading techniques in terms of the weighted total cost, energy consumption, and processing time.

Mobile cloud computing (MCC) is the availability of cloud computing services in a mobile environment. By providing optimal services for mobile users, MCC incorporates the elements of mobile networks and cloud computing. In mobile cloud computing, all the data and complicated computing modules can be processed in clouds, and mobile devices do not need a powerful configuration like CPU speed, memory capacity, etc. However, the mobile devices are facing up with many struggles in their resources (e.g., battery life, storage, and bandwidth) and communications (e.g., privacy, mobility, and security). These challenges have a significant effect on the improvement of service qualities. In this paper, a literature survey on the MCC and security issues in MCC has presented.
