Enhanced Cloud Data Storage Security by Using Hadoop

Abstract

Cloud computing is the modern technology, that facilitates to the user various resources, data and files to access from anywhere that a network is available, it is today’s modern computing where we distribute our resources and software from one place to another, but still the security of the data is a major problem in the cloud. However, there is need of processing a huge number of data and maintained the security over cloud. In this research we proposed a software framework (hadoop) with the cloud which helps us to process the huge number of data by using map-reduce model. To add security we use Kerberos authentication protocol which helps us to enhance security level over the cloud and also it is used to provide authentication to the users. We analyze and compare our technique with existing techniques, the results shows that our technique is much more secure and provide user authentication.
