Auditing of Data Integrity over Dynamic Data in Cloud

Abstract

Cloud computing is a new computing paradigm which encourages remote data storage. This facility shoots up the necessity of secure data auditing mechanism over outsourced data. Several mechanisms are proposed in the literature for supporting dynamic data. However, most of the existing schemes lack the security feature, which can withstand collusion attacks between the cloud server and the abrogated users. This paper presents a technique to overthrow the collusion attacks and the data auditing mechanism is achieved by means of vector commitment and backward unlinkable verifier local revocation group signature. The proposed work supports multiple users to deal with the remote cloud data. The performance of the proposed work is analysed and compared with the existing techniques and the experimental results are observed to be satisfactory in terms of computational and time complexity.
