Secure Data Forwarding in Cloud Using AES Algorithm

Computer Engineering

In today's world, leading IT giants are encouraging and approaching toward cloud storage like Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon and other similar companies are offering data storage in cloud for end users. We know that storing the data on third party’s system causes serious concern on data confidentiality. To enhance and provide the cloud security, various cryptography algorithms are used. Secure data forwarding in cloud using AES(Advanced Encryption Standard) algorithm is one of the safest way to securely forward the data. AES encryption and decryption is highly secured and fastest technique. Client side encryption is an effective approach to provide security to data before forwarding it on a cloud storage. This is the traditional technique for data forwarding, now to take security to next level, re-encryption concept is introduced, in which data will be encrypted twice.
