Description
Data protection has long been a point of contention and a vastly researched field. With the advent of technology and advances in Internet technologies, securing data has become much more challenging these days. Cloud services have become very popular. Given the ease of access and availability of the systems, it is not easy to not use cloud to store data. This however, pose a significant risk to data security as more of your data is available to a third party. Given the easy transmission and almost infinite storage of data, securing one's sensitive information has become a major challenge.
Cloud service providers may not be trusted completely with your data. It is not very uncommon to snoop over the data for finding interesting patterns to generate ad revenue or divulge your information to a third party, e.g. government and law enforcing agencies. For enterprises who use cloud service, it pose a risk for their intellectual property and business secrets. With more and more employees using cloud for their day to day work, business now face a risk of losing or leaking out information.
In this thesis, I have focused on ways to protect data and information over cloud- a third party not authorized to use your data, all this while still utilizing cloud services for transfer and availability of data. This research proposes an alternative to an on-premise secure infrastructure giving exibility to user for protecting the data and control over it. The project uses cryptography to protect data and create a secure architecture for secret key migration in order to decrypt the data securely for the intended recipient. It utilizes Intel's technology which gives it an added advantage over other existing solutions.
