A Compendium over Cloud Computing Cryptographic Algorithms and Security Issues

Cloud computing is an emanation and revolutionary approach towards the computing and it is an evolutionary approach of using resources and services on demand and as per the need of consumers. Cloud computing providing a platform rose on the Internet for usage of IT services and flexible infrastructure for the consumers and business. Deployment and management of services or resources are maintained by the third party. Whereas there are innumerable advantages to approaching the cloud computing, it also contains various issues such as confidentiality, integrity, authenticity and privacy. One of the prominent barriers to adopt the cloud computing is security. In this report, an elaborated study on various security issues allied to cloud computing is presented and a literature review is presented over the various cryptographic algorithms used for data security.
