Recent security incidents on public cloud data storage had raised concerns on cloud data security. Development in the hacking area has risen in the past few years. Due to this, Cyber Security is needed which plays an important role to cover the secret information. Currently, the attack of challenging channel is both the symmetric as well as the asymmetric encryption algorithm. Since, in both criteria the secret key has to be transmitting through a security challenging channel. For this many techniques have been put forward. The Main focus is on the vulnerabilities of the private keys while hoarded in different places for the fast utilization of the round key of the AES algorithm. In the view of the hackers, extracting the private key is nearly as same as obtaining the plain text itself. So, the honey encryption technique is used to futile the attacker by producing the fake key for each and every try of the Key puncher. An indication will be generated automatically to the storage manager when an attempt is made by the attacker. The Honey encryption is the best algorithm to overcome the drawbacks of the AES algorithm but it has some time constraints which are also eliminated here. Thus, eliminating the Brute Force Attack and providing a secure system for storing the secret key.

Background: Data integrity protection in Cloud Computing becomes very challenging since the user no longer has the possession of their own data. This makes cloud data storage security of critical importance. The users can resort to legal action against the cloud provider if the provider fails to maintain the integrity of the shared data, but it also raises a need to secure users' private data across the public cloud. Methods: In this paper, we propose a novel end-to-end solution to ensure the security of data stored over a public cloud. It is a two-tier approach where the data is stored in an encrypted format and only the owner of the data can have access to the original data shared across the cloud. The algorithm OwnData: Encryption and Decryption is based on AES file encryption, which has the flexibility to be implemented across different cloud platforms. Results: The proposed OwnData model to provide privacy and confidentiality to the user data successfully secures data in an encrypted format. The users can gain full access control over the accessibility of their data. The application has been improvised to minimize page load time which enables it to achieve improvements in scalability. Algorithm and concatenation operators (dot) give minimum computation load during uploading of data to the cloud platform or downloading the same. Conclusion: The algorithm is robust, scalable and secure and It gives the user complete authorization and control over the data even when data is being stored remotely or in any other cloud premises.

Cloud is an emerging technology that stores the necessary data and electronic form of data is produced in gigantic quantity. It is vital to maintain the efficacy of this data the need of data recovery services is highly essential. Cloud computing is anticipated as the vital foundation for the creation of IT enterprise and it is an impeccable solution to move databases and application software to big data centers where managing data and services is not completely reliable. Our focus will be on the cloud data storage security which is a vital feature when it comes to giving quality service. It should also be noted that cloud environment comprises of extremely dynamic and heterogeneous environment and because of high scale physical data and resources, the failure of data centre nodes is completely normal.Therefore, cloud environment needs effective adaptive management of data replication to handle the indispensable characteristic of the cloud environment. Disaster recovery using cloud resources is an attractive approach and data replication strategy which attentively helps to choose the data files for replication and the strategy proposed tells dynamically about the number of replicas and effective data nodes for replication. Thus, the objective of future algorithm is useful to help users together the information from a remote location where network connectivity is absent and secondly to recover files in case it gets deleted or wrecked because of any reason. Even, time oriented problems are getting resolved so in less time recovery process is executed.

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.
