Abstract

When concerned about cloud the security has to be the major factor considered by providers of service. Double encryption is a tool used by the storage server to transfer data by the sender and enhancing the security. The first key performs the identification of the receiver or public key at sender side to generate first-level cipher-text. The other key is stored in the security device issued by SDI (security device issuer) shared with cloud storage systems to originate second-level cipher-text. In the proposed scheme, a file in the cloud is uploaded by the sender and encrypts using the public key, and stores it in the cloud. File in the cloud is visible to the people. Only after the execution of two-step process receiver will be able to access the file. When the user has logged into the application by scanning the QR code in the cloud, the data is sent to the mobile application. As the user passes these step, the shared document is decrypted using a key generated by key generator and user can download the shared file. For each step utmost three attempts are provided, the user will be locked if the user is unable to login during these attempts. A notification facility which enables the user to notify an alert message through e-mail to the concerned user if they exceed more than two attempts or any intruder is trying to access the file is provided. Performance of the system in the cloud environment is analyzed. We present that, encrypted message is sent by a sender to a receiver such that only the receiver’s identity is known by the sender and no other information regarding the data to be accessed. To decrypt the cipher text receiver should perform two-steps. User’s secret key is in the computer and personal security device is connected to it. It is tedious to handle with decrypting the cipher text without either of the above two. This device is revoked In case the security of device is breached. It is not possible to decrypt the cipher text by cloud server.
