Enhancement of Cloud Computing Security with Secure Data Storage using AES

The evolution of Cloud computing makes the major changes in computing world as with the assistance of basic cloud computing service models like SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS an organization achieves their business goal with minimum effort as compared to traditional computing environment. On the other hand security of the data in the cloud database server is the key area of concern in the acceptance of cloud. It requires a very high degree of privacy and authentication. To protect the data in cloud database server cryptography is one of the important methods. Cryptography provides various symmetric and asymmetric algorithms to secure the data. This paper presents the symmetric cryptographic algorithm named as AES (Advanced Encryption Standard). It is based on several substitutions, permutation and transformation.
