Every smart phone has internal storage for the users to store their important data in it. If any unknown person gets the device they can miss use the data stored inside the mobile since there is no protection for the stored data. It is the major problem for smart phone users because of the limited security of the mobile. To address this problem, it introduced a new technique which is functional on Android platform. This paper propose an application named Private Data Mode (PDM) to illustrate the technique of securing the user data by using cloud services. Through the PDM application the user can store the data directly to the cloud and not necessary to store inside mobile storage. The application utilizes a multiple level security techniques to protect the data which starts with image pattern matching as first level authentication for cloud entry. The next level of security aspect is cloud authentication which decides the type of data to be secured. The user can manually create or select the storage data by this application and they can instantly store into the cloud. The PDM performs both upload and download operations using the same authentication. The proposed technique provides more protection for the data by removing them from mobile storage and securing them in cloud. There are no limitations on the type of data and all users can access the PDM application which is portable to versatile mobile devices.
