IMPACT ON ENHANCING CLOUD DATA STORAGE SECURITY THROUGH BLOCKCHAIN INTEGRITY DEVELOMENT

Abstract

Cloud computing is becoming more and more popular, butworries about data security and privacy stem from theregularity of hostile assaults on wireless and mobile networks.One of the goals of the created IAS protocol is to address theseissues. Access control, secure authentication, and identificationwill all be integrated into this protocol. The proposed IASprotocol, which was created to guarantee the secrecy andintegrity of data transmissions in cloud computingenvironments, is based on blockchain technology. Theimplementation of decentralized identity verification and keyrecovery/revocation management is made possible as a resultof this. The effectiveness of this strategy can be evaluated by theutilization of a cloud-based simulation of the proposed idea thatmakes use of Identity management, access control, and securesharing based on block chains (BC-IAS). The simulation is usedto evaluate key performance characteristics such as the pace atwhich data is accessed, the ratio of messages delivered, thelatency from beginning to end, and the amount of energyconsumed. When it comes to enhancing the privacy and securityof On top of blockchain technology, cloud computing and theBC-IAS protocol that is being proposed appear to be promisingdevelopments. To further improve cloud computing's securityand integrity, the BC-IAS protocol, which is constructed usingblockchain technology, is an appealing alternative. By virtue ofBecause of the decentralized nature of blockchain technology,data is stored in an accessible and immutable manner.Furthermore, smart contracts allow for the automaticenforcement of access control restrictions using blockchaintechnology. By adopting identity verification and secureauthentication, which restrict access to sensitive information toonly authorized personnel, it is possible to reduce the likelihoodof data breaches and cyberattacks occurring.
