Utilizing AES and XOR Encryption Scheme for Enhancing Data Security and Promoting Data Auditability in Cloud

Cloud computing provides the facility for the users to store huge amount of information in the cloud without any requirement to store a local copy of their data in their remote machine. The data, services and resources stored in the cloud can be shared among large amount of users through the internet. This makes data accessibility, data sharing and communication process more flexible and efficient. But main concern dealing with the cloud services include data security, data privacy and authentication issues. Different encryption techniques can be used to handle such problems to a great extent. Auditing enhances the possibility to ensure correctness in the cloud data.
