Development of Highly Secured Cloud Rendered Log Management System

Abstract

A log is a collection of record of events that occurs within an organization containing systems and network. These logs are very important for any organization, because log file will able to record all user activities. As this log files plays vital role and also it contains sensitive information , it should be maintained highly secure. So, management and securely maintenance of log records are very tedious task. However, deploying such a system for high security and privacy of log records is an overhead for an organization and also it requires additional cost. Many techniques have been design so far for security of log records. The alternative solution is to maintaining log records over a cloud database. Log files over cloud environment leads to challenges about privacy, confidentiality and integrity of log files. In this paper, we propose highly secured cloud rendered log management and also use of some cryptographic algorithms for dealing the issues to access a cloud based data storage. To the best of knowledge, this is the strong work to provide a complete solution to the cloud based secure log management problem.
