Enriching Secure Secret Data Deletion through Public Variability

As the volume of the data increases at the user's end, they often outsource the task of data storage to the third parties.Generally, these third parties may be a Cloud Service Provider or Data Repositories or may be small data storage vendors.Each and every data storage service provider offers better options for the end user and lure them to increase their business.This also includes data access, data sharing and much more and Most of the times due to these schemes, encryption keys of the users often compromised to lead to data theft or hacking.So a Data eraser, or key eraser systems are brought into light to solve this, Where the key that is used to decrypt the data is deleted secretly to maintain the integrity of the user data. Some methodologies do exist to achieve this by using the help of the some hardware modules. So it is always a challenging task to achieve the same by providing a software solution. As a tiny step towards this proposed model uses the MAC address to encapsulate the private key and then delete it at the Trusted Platform module end. The proposed model uses the RSA Asymmetric key scheme to generate the private and public keys.
