Cloud Computing provides us a means by which we can access the applications as utilities, over the internet. It allows us to create, configure, and customize the business applications online. The concept of cloud computing grows very rapidly in recent years. Nowadays many users store their data on Cloud. Data storage security refers to the security of data on the storage media. So, Security is an major concern in cloud computing for ensuring clients data is placed on the secure mode in the cloud. Data must not be stolen by the third party so authentication of client becomes a mandatory task. Data in cloud should be stored in encrypted form. This paper deals with the methods of providing security by data encryption using Blowfish Algorithm and to ensure that unauthorized intruder can't access your file or data in cloud.
Conclusion
Although cloud computing has many advantages, there are still many actual problems that need to be solved. The main problem is to maintain the privacy and the confidentiality of the data. Data confidentiality can be achieved by encrypted outsourced content before outsourcing to cloud servers and for privacy it is required that only the authorized user can access the data. Even if some intruder (Unauthorized user) gets access of the data accidentally or intentionally, he will not be able to decrypt it. In my work, I have used Blowfish Encryption algorithm to provide security to the data and Multifactor authentication for authentication purpose. In future the above approach can be enhanced further by including an integrity check mechanism.
