Abstract

Cloud computing is revolutionizing Customer Internet computing and the IT industry by integrating with mobile environments through remote access technologies. This growth involves using smartphones and sensors as data collection nodes interacting with the cloud. However, widespread adoption faces a hurdle in data security concerns, as users are hesitant about entrusting sensitive data to public clouds operated by external providers. To tackle barriers in cloud computing, we urgently require innovative and secure management architectures. This paper introduces a comprehensive framework addressing user concerns, focusing on secure data sharing in the cloud. The framework covers aspects like transport, aggregation, usage, and destruction of sensitive data, emphasizing the semi-trusted nature of the cloud to boost user confidence and address security concerns. One key aspect of the proposed framework is the integration of the Kerberos protocol over the network. This protocol plays a pivotal role in establishing secure and authenticated communication channels, ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of the data being transferred within the cloud infrastructure. Additionally, the paper introduces a user process protection method based on a virtual machine monitor. This method contributes to enhancing overall system security by providing a layer of isolation and protection for user processes operating in the cloud environment. The combined integration of the Kerberos protocol and the virtual machine monitor-based user process protection method forms a cohesive approach towards realizing robust system functionalities. By offering a secure foundation for data management in the cloud, this framework addresses the current limitations and instills a sense of trust among users, fostering a more widespread and confident adoption of cloud computing techniques.
