Abstract

Cloud Computing, the ubiquitous form of computing, has almost taken over the world of computing. The cloud platform serves as a data repository which provides ‘anywhere, anytime’ access to the users. Users depend upon the cloud service providers and upload their data to the cloud which not only improves the availability of data but also the functionality. However many security threats have occurred and serious data leakages have taken place which poses a question on the integrity of data being stored in the cloud. This study segments the life cycle of data into different phases and reviews various existing technologies used to provide data security. Data security during transmission, storage, usage and destruction are discussed upon in this study.
