Study of Image Data Security with Cloud

Abstract

The on-demand availableness of computer systems resources, especially storage of data (cloud storage) and rectifying power, with no direct ongoing administration by the user is what they call cloud computing. Large cloud functions are usually spread among several locations, each of which constitutes a data center. Customers may save money on capital expenses by using cloud computing, which frequently takes a “pay-as-you-go” approach. Coherence in cloud computing is achieved by sharing resources. In today's world of the Internet, demand for cloud services is increasing drastically leading to the production of new services day by day. As the services increase, the data gets primarily targeted by spiteful users who attempt to steal the data for their own atrocious and unethical activities. Users and trustworthy applications are considering more security and privacy and services get more in demand. Moreover, this study has reviewed several algorithms such as CPE-ABE (Ciphertext policy attribute-based encryption), ABE, KP-ABE (Key policy attribute-based encryption) CSP (Constraint satisfaction problem), PKG, AES (Advanced Encryption Standards), SHA-1 (Secure Hash Algorithm), Photo encryption, Photo decryption, PRE, IDEA (International Data Encryption algorithm) and LSBG (Least Significant Bit Grouping) for image data security. As already discussed, the increasing threats and frauds around the world, safe and secure applications and services should be created to resolve this problem so that people can store data on a platform that can be relied on. This research study has discussed about the concept of what are the paradigms required for securing and protecting the data and securing the image data at an encrypted level. This study has reviewed several existing research works, studied different algorithms which have been used in different research articles, and compared their strengths and drawbacks accordingly. Different research works have been summarized in a form of table, which includes multiple algorithms that are used to secure data, which are then distinguished them based on the strengths and drawbacks.
