GROUPING OF CLOUD ZONES TO IMPROVED THE SECURITY MECHANISM IN CLOUD COMPUTING

Cloud Computing has become one in every of the foremost talked regarding technologies in recent times and possesses a lot of attention from media yet as analysts attributable to the opportunities it's giving. Cloud computing has revolutionized the way computing and software services are delivered to the clients on demand. It offers users the ability to connect to computing resources and access IT managed services with a previously unknown level of ease. Thus, security concerns among users of the cloud have become a major barrier to the widespread growth of cloud computing. In this research work, we have fragmented the data into multiple parts before storing them at the cloud provider. The fragmented parts are stored in multiple zones which are grouped together to increase the security of the data. We have also implemented the concept of authorization policies like read only policy and read-write policy that allows the authorized user to access the data on the cloud. The goal of our experiment is to enhance the security between the client and the cloud provider when the data is being transferred, processed or stored at the cloud provider. Cloud services should execute with high performance as well as security should also be present because the data on cloud is stored at some far place.?
