Abstract:
In the realm of Cloud Computing, ensuring the security and privacy of user data keyword search is of paramount importance. This postgraduate project introduces a comprehensive solution, implemented in Java, to address these concerns through a Secure Keyword Search and Data Sharing Mechanism. The proposed system enhances data confidentiality, integrity, and accessibility in cloud environments.
Existing System:
Current cloud-based systems often lack robust security mechanisms for keyword searches and data sharing. Encryption and access controls are rudimentary, leaving data susceptible to unauthorized access and potential breaches.
Proposed System:
Our proposed system employs advanced encryption techniques and access control mechanisms to enhance the security of keyword searches and data sharing in the cloud. The system ensures that only authorized users can access specific data, while still allowing for efficient keyword-based retrieval.
System Requirements:
- Java Runtime Environment (JRE)
- Relational Database Management System (RDBMS)
- Internet Connectivity
- Adequate Storage Space in the Cloud Environment
Hardware Requirements:
- Multi-core Processor
- Sufficient RAM for Concurrent User Requests
- Secure Network Infrastructure
- Storage Devices with High Throughput
Software Requirements:
- Java Development Kit (JDK)
- Database Management System (e.g., MySQL, Oracle)
- Cloud Service Provider (e.g., AWS, Azure)
- Web Browser with JavaScript Support
Architecture:
The system adopts a three-tier architecture comprising a presentation layer, business logic layer, and data storage layer. The presentation layer is a user-friendly web interface, the business logic layer handles encryption, access control, and search functionalities, while the data storage layer securely stores the encrypted data.
Technologies Used:
- Java for Backend Development
- Spring Framework for Enterprise Java Applications
- Hibernate for Object-Relational Mapping
- HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for Frontend Development
- Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) for Data Encryption
- Access Control Lists (ACL) for Authorization
Web User Interface:
The web interface provides an intuitive platform for users to securely perform keyword searches and share data in the cloud. It includes features such as encrypted communication, role-based access control, and a responsive design for seamless user experience.
This project aims to contribute significantly to the field of secure data management in cloud computing, addressing the growing concerns of privacy and confidentiality. The implementation in Java ensures a versatile and scalable solution for diverse cloud environments.
