A secure confident cloud computing architecture solution for a smart campus

Abstract

The Smart campus is a new idea in the development of information technology, being a combination of the Cloud Computing, the Internet of Things and other emergent technologies. This paper presents the result of our research efforts to find the best solutions for the development of a smart campus, which also guarantees data security with a special focus on data confidentiality. Our solution proposes 5 levels of security for the cloud security architecture; it provides a high level of security, as well as high data confidentiality — the essential backbone for a truly smart campus development.
