In modern times, sharing data is the one of the very few things which is done by anyone and everyone. Much of this sharing is done digitally, i.e., over the internet, which makes it the most recurrent way of doing the sharing globally. Enablement of the sharing is aided using copious Cloud Service Providers, allowing the end user, not only the ability of sharing the data but also, storing it. But with the amenities, comes the risk of intentional and unintentional manipulation of the tons of data that is stored and shared in every minute. Breaches like Data Piracy, Hack Attacks etc. are the most common threats that tempers with security of the cloud in these times. It is the need of the hour to make the sensitive data stored by the user safe from intentional/unintentional misuse/manipulation. Thereby, it is necessary to make this system more secure to ensure and maintain the confidentiality of the user data. In this paper, we have ventured the introduction of a system that anchorage Blockchain for securing the data over the cloud. To ensure safety of the user's data, blockchain enables a prominent Controlled Access Mechanism. This mechanism accredits the user to share personalized hyperlinks deliberated to a single user. This approach logs details of all the actions and operations that are being done on or with the data and are at owner's disposal at all points. Actual Proprietary and privacy are few of the many benefits which are provided by this solution ensuring a more secure cloud space for the data.
