Remote Data Auditing in a Cloud Computing Environment

Abstract

In the current paradigms of information technology, cloud computing is the most essential kind of computer service. It satisfies the need for high-volume customers, flexible computing capabilities for a range of applications like as database archiving and business analytics, and the requirement for extra computer resources to provide a financial value for cloud providers. The purpose of this investigation is to assess the viability of doing data audits remotely inside a cloud computing setting. There includes discussion of the theory behind cloud computing and distributed storage systems, as well as the method of remote data auditing. In this research, it is mentioned to safeguard the data that is outsourced and stored in cloud servers. There are four different techniques of remote data auditing procedures that are presented here for distributed cloud services. There are several difficulties associated with data audit methods; however, these difficulties may be overcome by using a variety of techniques, such as the Boneh-Lynn-Shacham signature or the automated blocker protocol. In addition to that, other difficulties associated with distributed-based remote data auditing solutions are discussed. In addition, a variety of approaches might be researched further for further examination in order to find answers to these impending problems.
