Security in data forwarding through elliptic curve cryptography in cloud
S.V. Divya, Ramaswamy Swarnammal Shaji · 2014
Cloud is an emerging trend in IT which moves the data along its computing away from handy systems into large remote data centers where the management of those resources are not trustworthy. Because of its magnetized features, it is gaining popularity among the IT people and the researches. However building a secure storage system with some functionality is still a challenging task in cloud. Existing methods suffer from inefficiency and delay because the data cannot be forwarded to user without retrieving back and offline verification causes delay. This paper focuses on designing a secure cloud storage system that supports data forwarding function using elliptic curve cryptography. The proposed work also concentrates on Online Alert methodology which indicates the data owner when any attacker tries to modify the data or any malpractice happens during data forwarding. Moreover, our method ensures multi-level security when compared to existing systems.
