The OpenStack project provides an open source Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) platform. Its mission: to produce the ubiquitous Open Source Cloud Computing platform that will meet the needs of public and private clouds regardless of size, by being simple to implement and massively scalable. To this end, OpenStack is composed of a wide variety of sub-projects focused specifically on compute resources, network infrastructure, object and block storage, metering and orchestration - all of which are exposed via APIs.
This talk will introduce Keystone, the token-based identity component of OpenStack. It will cover the security needs and challenges around authentication and authorization for protecting the diverse needs of OpenStack projects, as well as ideas for solving these problems in the future.
OpenStack security is a huge topic. In these slides I presented at the OpenStack Day, I analyzed cloud security the network to the application layer, going through specific layers, some in common between OpenStack itself and the applications.

This procedure for archive-to-cloud builds on the techniques used for copy-to-tape. The difference is that it sends backups to cloud repositories for longer term storage. This procedure includes configuring a credential wallet to store TDE master keys, because backups are encrypted before they are archived to a cloud repository. The initial configuration tasks are performed in the Oracle Key Vault to prepare the wallet. At the end, a job template is created and run for archive-to-cloud.
A Hybrid Cloud Approach for Secure Authorized DeduplicationSWAMI06
Data deduplication is one of important data compression techniques for eliminating duplicate copies of repeating data,
and has been widely used in cloud storage to reduce the amount of storage space and save bandwidth. To protect the confidentiality
of sensitive data while supporting deduplication, the convergent encryption technique has been proposed to encrypt the data before
outsourcing. To better protect data security, this paper makes the first attempt to formally address the problem of authorized data
deduplication. Different from traditional deduplication systems, the differential privileges of users are further considered in duplicate
check besides the data itself.We also present several new deduplication constructions supporting authorized duplicate check in a hybrid
cloud architecture. Security analysis demonstrates that our scheme is secure in terms of the definitions specified in the proposed
security model. As a proof of concept, we implement a prototype of our proposed authorized duplicate check scheme and conduct
testbed experiments using our prototype. We show that our proposed authorized duplicate check scheme incurs minimal overhead
compared to normal operations.

Secure Auditing and Deduplicating Data on CloudIJMTST Journal
Cloud computing is a technology that used for storing and accessing. The data on remote location. It is totally internet-based.it is self-service and on Demand technology. That’s why now days it’s mostly used and popular term. Enterprises and organizations used cloud storage for access data to third-party. As like, the single user also use the confidential data anywhere, anytime on earth It is now becoming business standard. Its simplify users accessibility. It is cost saving and flexible for better performance on internet. But is also occur drawbacks like security and integrity on data. Like many times the data is already available on storage but it contain slightly difference. So overcome this problems we introduce two secure system, namely seccloud and seccloud+. Seccloud is used for generating tags on data before uploading and seccloud+ is maintain the integrity auditing and secure de-duplication on data because every customer wants to encrypt their data before uploading. Data integrity and storage efficiency are tw o important aspect of cloud storage. Proof of Retrievability (POR) and Proof of Data Possession (PDP) techniques Assure data integrity for cloud storage. Proof of Ownership (POW) improves Storage efficiency by securely removing unnecessarily duplicated data on the Storage server. Cloud computing is one of the most talked about IT trends today.in cloud more application availability on the cloud. Also cloud increased growth in the market.

Multi-part Dynamic Key Generation For Secure Data EncryptionCSCJournals
Storage of user or application-generated user-specific private, confidential data on a third party storage provider comes with its own set of challenges. Although such data is usually encrypted while in transit, securely storing such data at rest presents unique security challenges. The first challenge is the generation of encryption keys to implement the desired threat containment. The second challenge is secure storage and management of these keys. This can be accomplished in several ways. A naive approach can be to trust the boundaries of a secure network and store the keys within these bounds in plain text. A more sophisticated method can be devised to calculate or infer the encryption key without explicitly storing it. This paper focuses on the latter approach. Additionally, the paper also describes the implementation of a system that in addition to exposing a set of REST APIs for secure CRUD operations also provides a means for sharing the data among specific users.
A Privacy Preserving Attribute Based Access Control Mechanism In Distributed ...Editor IJCATR
We propose a new decentralized access control scheme for secure data storage in clouds that supports anonymous
authentication. In the proposed scheme, the cloud verifies the authenticity of the series without knowing the user’s identity before
storing data. Our scheme also has the added feature of access control in which only valid users are able to decrypt the stored
information. The scheme prevents replay attacks and supports creation, modification, and reading data stored in the cloud. We also
address user revocation. Moreover, our authentication and access control scheme is decentralized and robust, unlike other access
control schemes designed for clouds which are centralized. The communication, computation, and storage overheads are comparable
to centralized approaches.
SECRY - Secure file storage on cloud using hybrid cryptographyALIN BABU
Final project presentation of Final year B.tech CSE Project APJ Abdul Kalam Technological University.
About the project
Cloud computing has now become a major trend, it is a new data hosting technology that is very popular in recent years. In this project, we are developing an web application that can securely store the files to a cloud server. We proposes a system that uses hybrid cryptography technique to securely store the data in cloud. The hybrid approach when deployed in cloud environment makes the remote server more secure and thus, helps the users to fetch more trust of their data in the cloud. For data security and privacy protection issues, the fundamental challenge of separation of sensitive data and access control is fulfilled. Cryptography technique translates original data into unreadable format. This technique uses keys for translate data into unreadable form. So only authorized person can access data from cloud server.
We provide a cloud storage that uses multiple crypotraphic technique which is known by hybrid cryptography. The product provides confidentiality by using security for both upload and download. The data will be secured since we use multi level security techniques and multiple servers for storage.

A Review on Key-Aggregate Cryptosystem for Climbable Knowledge Sharing in Clo...Editor IJCATR
The Data sharing is an important functionality in cloud storage. In this article, we show how to securely, efficiently, and
flexibly share data with others in cloud storage. We describe new public-key cryptosystems which produce constant-size ciphertexts
such that efficient delegation of decryption rights for any set of ciphertexts are possible. The novelty is that one can aggregate any set
of secret keys and make them as compact as a single key, but encompassing the power of all the keys being aggregated. In other
words, the secret key holder can release a constant-size aggregate key for flexible choices of ciphertext set in cloud storage, but the
other encrypted files outside the set remain confidential. This compact aggregate key can be conveniently sent to others or be stored in
a smart card with very limited secure storage. We provide formal security analysis of our schemes in the standard model. We also
describe other application of our schemes. In particular, our schemes give the first public-key patient controlled encryption for flexible
hierarchy, which was yet to be known.
Improving Efficiency of Security in Multi-CloudIJTET Journal
Abstract--Due to risk in service availability failure and the possibilities of malicious insiders in the single cloud, a movement towards “Multi-clouds” has emerged recently. In general a multi-cloud security system there is a possibility for third party to access the user files. Ensuring security in this stage has become tedious since, most of the activities are done in network. In this paper, an enhanced security methodology has been introduced in order to make the data stored in cloud more secure. Duple authentication process introduced in this concept defends malicious insiders and shields the private data. Various disadvantages in traditional systems like unauthorized access, hacking have been overcome in this proposed system and a comparison made with the traditional systems in terms of performance and computational time have shown better results.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
