Single Sign-on Authentication Model for Cloud Computing using KerberosDeepak Bagga
ABSTRACT
In today’s organizations need for several new resources and storage requirements for terabytes of data is generated every day. Cloud computing provides solution for this in a cost effective and efficient manner. Cloud computing provides on demand resources as services to clients. Cloud is highly scalable and flexible. Although it is benefiting the clients in several ways but as data is stored remotely it has many security loopholes like attacks, data lose, other security and authentication issues. In this paper we are proposing an authentication model for cloud computing based on the Kerberos protocol to provide single sign-on and to prevent against DDOS attacks. This model can benefit by filtering against unauthorized access and to reduce the burden, computation and memory usage of cloud against authentication checks for each client. It acts as a third party between cloud servers and clients to allow secure access to cloud services. In this paper we will see some of the related work for cloud security issues and attacks. Then in next section we will discuss the proposed architecture, its working and sequential process of message transmission. Next we will see how it can prevent against DDOS attacks, some benefits and how it provides single sign-on.

Cloud computing, undoubtedly, is a path to expand the limits or add powerful capabilities on-demand with
almost no investment in new framework, training new staff, or authorizing new software. Though today
everyone is talking about cloud but, organizations are still in dilemma whether it’s safe to deploy their business
on cloud. The reason behind it; is nothing but Security. No cloud service provider provides 100% security
assurance to its customers and therefore, businesses are hesitant to accept cloud and the vast benefits that come
along with it. The absence of proper security controls delimits the benefits of cloud. In this paper, a review on
different cloud service models and a survey of the different security challenges and issues while providing
services in cloud is presented .The paper focuses on the security issues specific to service delivery model (SaaS,
IaaS and PaaS) of cloud environment. This paper also explores the various security solutions currently being
applied to protect cloud from various kinds of intruders.

Cloud computing is a major trend and a fast growing phenomena in the IT world. Organizations working in different sectors such as education or business are becoming more interested in moving their applications to the cloud to boost their infrastructure resources; increase their applications’ scalability and reduce costs. This boost in demand for cloud services led to the need for clouds to federate, in order to flawlessly deliver the required computation power and other services. In addition, there is major trend in delegating identity management tasks to identity providers in order to reduce cost. Managing identity and access control across different domains is a challenge. This paper proposes a framework for managing identity in federated clouds based on the use of a Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) Agent. The agent acts as an interface for a cloud identity manager where it sends and receives identity assertion requests from and to other clouds in the federation. In addition, the agent assigns roles to users using identity attributes received in assertions and cloud’s internal role mapping rules. For testing the agent’s capability to scale and sustain load, a prototype implementation was developed. Performance evaluation results demonstrate the viability of the proposed framework.

Cloud computing is set of resources and services offered through the Internet. Cloud
services are delivered from data centers located throughout the world. Cloud computing
facilitates its consumers by providing virtual resources via internet. The biggest challenge in
cloud computing is the security and privacy problems caused by its multi-tenancy nature and the
outsourcing of infrastructure, sensitive data and critical applications. Enterprises are rapidly adopting
cloud services for their businesses, measures need to be developed so that organizations can be assured
of security in their businesses and can choose a suitable vendor for their computing needs. Cloud
computing depends on the internet as a medium for users to access the required services at any time on
pay-per-use pattern. However this technology is still in its initial stages of development, as it suffers
from threats and vulnerabilities that prevent the users from trusting it. Various malicious activities
from illegal users have threatened this technology such as data misuse, inflexible access control and
limited monitoring. The occurrence of these threats may result into damaging or illegal access of
critical and confidential data of users. In this paper we identify the most vulnerable security
threats/attacks in cloud computing, which will enable both end users and vendors to know a bout
the k ey security threats associated with cloud computing and propose relevant solution directives to
strengthen security in the Cloud environment. We also propose secure cloud architecture for
organizations to strengthen the security.

challenge. Security is the most important challenge for cloud systems. In this paper we design
and explain the procedure of implementation of a new method for cloud services based on multi
clouds on our platform which supplies security and privacy more than other clouds. We
introduce some confidentiality and security methods in each layer to have a secure access to
requirements. The architecture of our method and the implementation of method on our selected
platform for each layer are introduced in this paper.
Review on Security Aspects for Cloud Architecture IJECEIAES
Cloud computing is one of the fastest growing and popular technology in the field of computing. As the concept of cloud computing was introduced in 2006. Since then large number of IT industries join the queue to develop many cloud services and put sensitive information over cloud. In fact cloud computing is no doubt the great innovation in the field of computing but at the same time also poses many challenges. Since a large number of organizations migrate their business to cloud and hence it appears as an attractive target for the malicious attack. The purpose of the paper is to review the available literature for security concerns and highlight a relationship between vulnerabilities, attacks and threats in SaaS model. A mapping is being presented to highlight the impact of vulnerabilities and attacks.
Abstract--The paper identifies the issues and the solution to overcome these problems. Cloud computing is a subscription based service where we can obtain networked storage space and computer resources. This technology has the capacity to admittance a common collection of resources on request. It is the application provided in the form of service over the internet and system hardware in the data centers that gives these services. But having many advantages for IT organizations cloud has some issues that must be consider during its deployment. The main concern is security privacy and trust. There are various issues that need to be dealt with respect to security and privacy in a cloud computing scenario [4].
Keywords--Cloud, Issues, Security, Privacy, Resources, Technology.
Today, in the world of communication, connected systems is growing at a rapid pace. To accommodate this growth the need for computational power and storage is also increasing at a similar rate. Companies are investing a large amount of resources in buying, maintaining and ensuring availability of the system to their customers. To mitigate these issues, cloud computing is playing a major role [1]. The underlying concept of cloud computing dates back to the ‘50s but the term entering into widespread usage can be traced to 2006 when Amazon.com announced the Elastic Compute Cloud. In this paper, we will discuss about cloud security approaches. We have used the term “CloudDrain” to define data leakage in case of security compromise.

CLOUD COMPUTING (IN)SECURITY
Cloud computing is reshaping enterprise network architectures and
infrastructures. It refers to applications delivered as services over the
Internet as well as the hardware and systems software in data centers that
provide those services. The services themselves have long been referred to
as Software as a Service (SaaS) which had its roots in Software-Oriented
Architecture (SOA) concepts that began shaping enterprise network
roadmaps in the early 2000s. IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) and PaaS
(Platform as a Service) are other types of cloud computing services that are
available to business customers.
Cloud computing fosters the notion of computing as a utility that can be
consumed by businesses on demand in a manner that is similar to other
services (e.g. electricity, municipal water) from traditional utilities. It has the
potential to reshape much of the IT industry by giving businesses the option
of running business software applications fully on-premises, fully in “the
cloud” or some combination of these two extremes. These are choices that
businesses have not had until recently and many companies are still coming
to grips with this new computing landscape.
Security is important to any computing infrastructure. Companies go to
great lengths to secure on-premises computing systems, so it is not
surprising that security looms as a major consideration when augmenting or
replacing on-premises systems with cloud services. Allaying security

concerns is frequently a prerequisite for further discussions about migrating
part or all of an organization’s computing architecture to the cloud.
Availability is another major concern: “How will we operate if we can’t access
the Internet? What if our customers can’t access the cloud to place orders?”
are common questions [AMBR10].
Generally speaking, such questions only arise when businesses
contemplating moving core transaction processing, such as ERP systems,
and other mission critical applications to the cloud. Companies have
traditionally demonstrated less concern about migrating high maintenance
applications such as e-mail and payroll to cloud service providers even
though such applications hold sensitive information.
Security Issues and Concerns
Auditability is a concern for many organizations, especially those who must
comply with Sarbanes-Oxley and/or Health and Human Services Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) regulations [IBM11].
The auditability of their data must be ensured whether it is stored on-
premises or moved to the cloud.
Before moving critical infrastructure to the cloud, businesses should do
diligence on security threats both from outside and inside the cloud
[BADG11]. Many of the security issues associated with protecting clouds
from outside threats are similar to those that have traditionally faced

Trust based Mechanism for Secure Cloud Computing Environment: A Surveyinventionjournals
Ubiquitous computing has revolutionized interaction of humans and machines. Cloud computing has been mainly used for storing data and various computational purposes. It has changed the face of using the internet. But, as we know every technology has its pros and cons. Securing cloud environment is the most challenging issue for the researchers and developers. Main aspects which cloud security should cover are authentication, authorization, data protection etc. Establishing trust between cloud service providers (CSP) is the biggest challenge, when someone is discussing about cloud security. Trust is a critical factor which mainly depends on perception of reputation and self-assessment done by both user and CSP. The trust model can act as security strength evaluator and ranking service for cloud application and services. For establishing trust relationship between two parties, mutual trust mechanism is reliable, as it does verification from both sides. There are various trust models which mainly focuses on securing one party i.e., they validate either user or service node. In this survey paper, the study of various trust models and their various parameters are discussed.
Cloud computing has changed the entire process that distributed computing used to present e.g. Grid
computing, server client computing. Cloud computing describes recent developments in many existing IT
technologies and separates application and information resources from the underlying infrastructure.
Cloud computing security is an important aspect of quality of service from cloud service providers.
Security concerns arise as soon as one begins to run applications beyond the designated firewall and move
closer towards the public domain. In violation of security in any component in the cloud can be disaster for
the organization (the customer) as well as for the provider. In this paper, we propose a cloud security
model and security framework that identifies security challenges in cloud computing.
This is a literature survey about security issues and countermeasures on cloud computing. This paper discusses about an overview of cloud computing and security issues of cloud computing.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

Cloud Computing: Unexampled firmness of purpose
of Java Technologies as for Security vulnerabilities
and Cloud user’s Interaction on the Web.

Assistant Professor of Computer Science and Deputy Dean IRP, Baba Farid College,
Bathinda, Email: - tejinder31.singh@gmail.com
Abstract - Here in this paper, we explore comparative study to analyze the cloud computing with the use of Java Technologies.
Cloud computing is a natural firmness of purpose for data and computation centers with automated systems management,
workload balancing, and virtualization technologies. A mounting number of vendors are contribution Java Platform as a Service
(PaaS) solutions that support the Java Standard Edition (JSE) and JEE standard. Java EE 7 Provides more or less additional
functionality even you can handle the security purpose and applications on the web community. We have seen that Java EE is the
major enterprise platform with millions of lines of code available in the data centers, a path to move them to Cloud will be very
attractive to enterprises. As a security issues on cloud environment data transfer, data sharing and user permission’s which form
could be accessed on via cloud computing. Java EE 7 be responsible for regarding data transfer and user permissions. In this
paper, the author discuss security issues, privacy and control issues, accessibility issues, confidentiality, integrity of data and
many more for cloud computing And discuss, three cloud service models were compared; cloud security risks and threats were
investigated based on the nature of the cloud service models.
Keywords: J2EE, Enterprise; Security; Users; Applications
I. Introduction
As presently, java introduces the concept of cloud computing with the Enterprise technology. Java
provides the environment for cloud, Service engines provide logic in the environment, such as XSL
(Extensible Stylesheet Language) transformation or BPEL (Business Process Execution Language)
orchestration. Binding components are sort of "connectors" to external services or applications. They
allow communication with various protocols, such as SOAP, REST, Java Message Service, or ebXML.
Especially if you mean the enterprise as we know it today. While there are important security, privacy and
regulatory issues that enterprises need to sort through before full migration to the cloud, and cloud
vendors need to strengthen cloud capabilities in these areas before enterprise applications can be
effectively hosted in the cloud, there are benefits that cloud technologies do offer today that can be
leveraged in the deployment of many enterprise applications [1]. In simple words, Cloud computing is the
combination of a technology, platform that provides hosting and storage service on the Internet. Cloud
computing aims to provide scalable and inexpensive on -demand computing infrastructures with good
quality of service levels. “A model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool
of configurable service delivery models coexist in one cloud platform the security management process

IV. Data Security on the Cloud Side
From the laaS on the bottom foundation layer to the PaaS on the middle layer and the SaaS on the top layer, cloud storage is always an important key factor for implement the application of cloud computing. lasS layer is supporting the networking service. In the following, some consideration regarding the security issue for device and equipment must be focused.
Storage and system protection
Data protection
Encrypt those confidential file or sensitive data before uploading. After then, those encrypted data could be uploading to the storage designated and provided by service provider of the cloud computing through secure channel. The demonstrated operating process is shown [4]
Figure 2: Data Encryption before Uploading
V. Java Vulnerabilities for Cloud
Over the years that the X-Force team has been tracking Security incidents, the overall attack tactics and techniques have not changed significantly. The number of overall incidents has increased, the amount of traffic used in distributed-denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks has multiplied and the number of leaked records has been steadily rising. They successfully exploited vulnerable web applications with attacks such as SQL injection (SQLi) and cross-site scripting (XSS), as well as utilized a mix of sophisticated and generally accessible toolkits to gain critical points of entry.
