The most prevalent, omnipresent properties of the cloud are to secure cloud storage and access the data with privacy is a very challenging task. To ensure data privacy, Data in the cloud is exclusively stored in an encrypted format. Encryption ensures the confidentiality of sensitive information, preventing unauthorized access. Privacy concerns are addressed through access controls, ensuring that only authorized individuals can interact with the stored data. The encryption system that is taken gives access control and also provides efficiency and scalability. In this paper, we have taken a technique called Hierarchical attribute-based encryption which helps in preventing information by unauthorized access. Here we have ensured the HABE scheme was proposed with accountability where it has then hierarchical access control along with traceability techniques. This technique helps in keeping track of the data which is stored in the cloud. This proposed scheme helps in outlining the privacy, security, and accountability to keep a safe data management system.
