Cloud based EDos attack prevention system using dual access control mechanism

computer science and engineering

Cloud based data storage is becoming very popular nowadays as one can easily download any document from anytime and anywhere. However documents security is very important in cloud storage as cloud is a third party server which can be accessed by administrators. There are many literatures available to improve document security on cloud and most of the literatures proposed various data encryption techniques. However, simply encrypting data (e.g., via AES) cannot fully address the practical need of data management. Besides, an effective access control over download request also needs to be considered so that Economic Denial of Sustainability (EDoS) attacks cannot be launched to hinder users from enjoying service. In this project, we consider the dual access control, in the context of cloud-based storage, in the sense that we design a control mechanism over both data access and download request without loss of security and efficiency. Along with dual access control we also focus on document security by using modified AES algorithm.
