In these days cloud security is the main issue. As many users hesitate to adopt cloud computing due to security concerns. So in this paper we have discussed various security features of different cloud service models. The security of different clouds depends mainly upon the framework and programming practices that the developer uses in her application.
Cloud computing allows users to access software, storage, and computing power over the internet. It provides scalable resources and services to customers on-demand. There are several cloud deployment models including public, private, community, and hybrid clouds. The three main service models are infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and software as a service (SaaS). Cloud computing provides businesses benefits like reduced costs and time to market. Technical benefits include automation, auto-scaling, and improved development cycles. Security and loss of control are concerns that need to be addressed for cloud adoption.
This document discusses various services provided by the Microsoft Azure platform. It focuses on three main service platforms: Web & Mobile, Internet of Things, and Azure Storage. For each service, the document provides details on features and capabilities. It explains how Azure provides developers with services and tools to build scalable applications that can integrate various data sources and devices. The conclusion states that Azure offers a flexible cloud platform that reduces costs and makes it easy for developers to migrate applications to the cloud.
Veena Venugopal presented on cloud security and proposed an efficient and secure protocol for data storage in cloud computing. The protocol has three phases - setup, verification, and dynamic operations and verification. In the setup phase, the user encrypts and generates metadata for the file. A third party auditor verifies the integrity of the stored data by generating challenges and checking proofs from the cloud server. The protocol also supports dynamic operations like modification, insertion, and deletion of blocks while maintaining security. It provides confidentiality, public verifiability, and supports efficient dynamic operations on outsourced data in the cloud.
The cloud computing paradigm is still evolving, but has recently gained tremendous momentum. However, security and privacy issues pose as the key roadblock to its fast adoption. In this paper we present security and privacy challenges that are exacerbated by the unique aspects of clouds and show how they're related to various delivery and deployment models. We discuss various approaches to address these challenges, existing solutions, and future work needed to provide a trustworthy cloud computing environment.

Secured Hosting of PCI DSS Compliant Web Applications on AWSGaurav "GP" Pal
Protecting card owner information has become very important for e-commerce companies as they have become frequent targets for hackers. In order to safeguard the interests of the card owners, four industry majors, VISA, MasterCard, Discover and American Express, joined hands to create a set of policies and procedures to protect the debit, credit and cash card transactions and to safeguard the personal information of the cardholders. These policies and procedures are collectively known as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). In simple terms these standards alert companies that they are wholly responsible for the credit card information of their customers. The PCI directs companies to use the information diligently and to store only that information that is required for their business. This white paper provides an overview of architectural features in the AWS cloud that ensure the hosting of e-commerce web applications that are PCI DSS compliant. This stackArmor white paper provides an overview of hosting PCI DSS compliant applications in AWS.

On technical security issues in cloud computingsashi799
This document discusses technical security issues in cloud computing. It begins with an introduction to cloud computing and outlines some of the main security concerns when relying on external companies to store and process data in the cloud. These concerns include data confidentiality, safety and privacy. The document then surveys related work on web service and transport layer security. It proceeds to examine specific security issues in cloud computing like XML signature issues, browser security vulnerabilities, risks of cloud integrity and binding failures, and flooding attacks. It concludes by noting that improving cloud security requires strengthening the security of both web browsers and web service frameworks.
Cloud security refers to securing the many aspects of cloud computing, including maintaining data security within the cloud, between users and the cloud, and protecting cloud infrastructure. There are different types of clouds - public clouds allow remote access but data is held by third parties; private clouds keep data behind a corporate firewall; hybrid clouds combine public and private access; and community clouds share resources between organizations. Each cloud type has its own security risks and requirements due to factors like data access and control.
The document provides an overview of Oracle Platform Security Services (OPSS) and how it can be used to provide security for Java applications. OPSS provides standards-based security services and abstracts security implementation details away from developers. It supports features like authentication, authorization, role-based access control, and integration with identity management systems. The document also describes several use cases where OPSS can be leveraged for applications developed using Java EE, Java SE, Oracle ADF, and other Oracle products.
Cloud computing began to get both awareness and popularity in the early 2000s.
When the concept of cloud computing originally came to prominence most people did
not fully understand what role it fullled or how it helped an organization. In some
cases people still do not fully understand the concept of cloud computing. Cloud
computing can refer to business intelligence (BI), complex event processing (CEP),
service-oriented architecture (SOA), Software as a Service (SaaS), Web-oriented architecture
(WOA), and even Enterprise 2.0. With the advent and growing acceptance
of cloud-based applications like Gmail, Google Calendar, Flickr, Google Docs, and
Delicious, more and more individuals are now open to using a cloud computing environment
than ever before. As this need has continued to grow so has the support
and surrounding infrastructure needed to support it. To meet those needs companies
like Google, Microsoft, and Amazon have started growing server farms in order to
provide companies with the ability to store, process, and retrieve data while generating
income for themselves. To meet this need Google has brought on-line more
than a million servers in over 30 data centers across its global network. Microsoft
is also investing billions to grow its own cloud infrastructure. Microsoft is currently
adding an estimated 20,000 servers a month. With this amount of process, storage
and computing power coming online, the concept of cloud computing is more of a
reality than ever before. The growth of cloud computing had the net eect of businesses
migrating to a new way of managing their data infrastructure. This growth of
cloud computing capabilities has been described as driving massive centralization at
its deep center to take advantage of economies of scale in computing power, energy
consumption, cooling, and administration.

SRAAA – Secured Right Angled and Ant Search Hybrid Routing Protocol for MANETsAM Publications,India
— This paper is a contribution in the field of security analysis on mobile ad-hoc networks, and security requirements of applications. Limitations of the mobile nodes have been studied in order to design a secure routing protocol that thwarts different kinds of attacks. Our approach is based on the Right Angled and Ant Search Hybrid Routing Protocol (RAAA); the most popular hybrid routing protocol. The importance of the proposed solution lies in the fact that it ensures security as needed by providing a comprehensive architecture of secured Right Angled and Ant Search Hybrid Routing Protocol (SRAAA) based on efficient key management, secure neighbor discovery, secure routing packets, detection of malicious nodes, and preventing these nodes from destroying the network. In order to fulfill these objectives, both efficient key management and secure neighbor mechanisms have been designed to be performed prior to the functioning of the protocol. To validate the proposed solution, we use the network simulator NS-2 to test the performance of secure protocol and compare it with the conventional zone routing protocol over different number of factors that affect the network. Our results evidently show that our secure version paragons the conventional protocol in the packet delivery ratio while it has a tolerable increase in the routing overhead and average delay. Also, security analysis proves in details that the proposed protocol is robust enough to thwart all classes of ad-hoc attacks.

Literature Review: Convey the Data in Massive Parallel ComputingAM Publications,India
In this paper we have studied several works on direct network architectures which are well-built contestant for useful in many successful cost-effective, experimental massive parallel computers and well scale up shared memory of multiprocessors. The uniqueness of direct networks, as reflected by the communication latency and routing latency metrics are significant to the performance of such systems. A multiprocessor system can be used for the wormhole routing for the most capable switching method and has been adopted in several new massive parallel computers. This technique is unique technical challenges in routing and flow control in particular system, and avoid deadlock. The highly scale up network is a combination of topology and hypercube. Due to the being of concurrent multiple mesh and hypercubes, this network provides a great architectural support for parallel processing. The growth of the network is more efficient in terms of communication, interconnection network is scaled up the network and will be more reliable and also the unreliability of the interconnection network to get minimized. This is very desirable characteristic for the interconnection network as the network remains equipped for more failure of adjoining nodes or links in parallel computer architecture.

Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) are wireless networks consisted of mobile free nodes that can move anywhere at any time without the need to any fixed infrastructure or any centralized administration. In this category of networks existing nodes must rely on each other to play the role of routers or switches instead of using central ones. The self-organized nature of such environments made MANETs vulnerable against many security threats. As a result, providing security requirements in MANETs is one of the most interesting challenges in such a network. In this group of networks, the use of cryptographic solutions is one of the most interesting security issues. The importance of this scientific area in MANETs is more drastic by considering that mentioned schemes must be lightweight enough to be appropriate for resource constrained platforms in such environment. This paper has tried to represent the position of cryptographic issues in MANETs. Moreover, security issues in mobile Ad hoc networks beside of different classes of public key cryptosystems have been introduced.

SURVEY ON KEY AGGREGATE CRYPTOSYSTEM FOR SCALABLE DATA SHARINGEditor IJMTER
Public-key cryptosystems produce constant-size cipher texts with efficient delegation
of decryption rights for any set of cipher texts. One can aggregate any set of secret keys and make
them as compact as a single key. The secret key holder can release a constant-size aggregate key for
flexible choices of cipher text set in cloud storage. In KAC, users encrypt a message not only under a
public-key, but also under an identifier of cipher text called class. That means the cipher texts are
further categorized into different classes. The key owner holds a master-secret called master-secret
key, which can be used to extract secret keys for different classes. More importantly, the extracted
key have can be an aggregate key which is as compact as a secret key for a single class, but
aggregates the power of many such keys, i.e., the decryption power for any subset of cipher text
classes. The key aggregate cryptosystem is enhanced with boundary less cipher text classes. The
system is improved with device independent key distribution mechanism. The key distribution
process is enhanced with security features to protect key leakage. The key parameter transmission
process is integrated with the cipher text download process.
Cloud computing refers to applications and services that are accessed via the internet through a web browser rather than being installed on a physical device. It involves delivering computing resources such as databases, software, storage, and applications over the internet. There are three main service models for cloud computing: Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS). IaaS provides basic storage and networking capabilities, PaaS provides platforms for building apps, and SaaS provides ready-to-use software to customers. Cloud computing offers benefits like reduced costs, increased scalability and flexibility, and rapid deployment of applications.

The rapid development of cloud computing is giving way to more cloud services, due to
which security of services of cloud especially data confidentiality protection, becomes more critical.
Cloud computing is an emerging computing style which provides dynamic services, scalable and payper-use.
Although cloud computing provides numerous advantages, a key challenge is how to ensure
and build confidence that the cloud can handle user data securely. This paper highlights some major
security issues that exist in current cloud computing environments. The status of the development of
cloud computing security, the data privacy analysis, security audit, information check and another
challenges that the cloud computing security faces have been explored. The recent researches on data
protection regarding security and privacy issues in cloud computing have partially addressed some
issues. The best option is to build data-protection solutions at the platform layer. The growing appeal
of data protection as a service is that it enables to access just the resources you need at minimal
upfront expense while providing the benefits of enterprise-class data protection capabilities. The
paper proposes a solution to make existing developed applications for simple cloud Systems
compatible with DPaaS. The various security challenges have been highlighted and the various
necessary metrics required for designing DPaaS have been investigated.
