Data security in cloud computing using AES under HEROKU cloud
Bih‐Hwang Lee, Ervin Kusuma Dewi, Muhammad Farid Wajdi · 2018
Cloud security is an evolving sub-domain of computer and network security. Cloud platform utilizes third-party data centers model. An example of cloud platform as a service (PaaS) is Heroku. It supports several programming languages that are used for web application deployment model. Heroku is based on a managed container system, with integrated data services and a powerful ecosystem, for deploying and running modern apps. One essential issue in cloud computing is data security, which is handled using cryptography methods. A possible method to encrypt data is Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). In this paper, we implement Heroku as a cloud platform, then we implement AES for data security in Heroku. The performance evaluation shows that AES cryptography can be used for data security. Moreover, delay calculation of data encryption shows that larger size of data increases the data delay time for encrypting data.
