Protecting Resources and Regulating Access in Cloud-Based Object Storage

Get the paper Cite

Cloud storage services offer a variety of benefits that make them extremely attractive for the management of large amounts of data. These services, however, raise some concerns related to the proper protection of data that, being stored on servers of third party cloud providers, are no more under the data owner control. The research and development encryption is adopted not only for protecting data but also for regulating accesses. Depending on the trust assumption on the cloud provider offering the storage service, encryption can be applied at the server side, client side, or through an hybrid approach. The goal of this chapter is to survey these encryption-based solutions and to provide a description of some representative systems that adopt such solutions.
