Preserving Privacy through Data Control in a Cloud Computing Architecture Using Discretion Algorithm

Abstract

Cloud computing is an On-demand self-service Internet infrastructure where a customer can pay and use only what is needed, managed by an API. The SP plays an active role in transmitting information across the cloud. Privacy for the information through authentication is being considered important. Providing security requires more than user authentication with passwords or digital certificates. The discretion algorithm has been designed and the IDS provide passive security solution. Since the context data is stored by the service provider the control of the data propagate to the whole cloud chain.
