DECENTRALIZED ACCESS

CONTROL WITH
ANONYMOUS
AUTHENTICATION OF DATA
STORED IN CLOUDS
ABSTRACT
 We propose a new decentralized access control
scheme for secure data storage in clouds that
supports anonymous authentication.

 In the proposed scheme, the cloud verifies the


authenticity of the series without knowing the user’s
identity before storing data.
Contd…
 Our scheme also has the added feature of access
control in which only valid users are able to decrypt
the stored information.

 The scheme prevents replay attacks and supports


creation, modification, and reading data stored in the
cloud. We also address user revocation.
Contd…
 Moreover, our authentication and access control
scheme is decentralized and robust, unlike other
access control schemes designed for clouds which are
centralized.

 The communication, computation, and storage


overheads are comparable to centralized
approaches.
EXISTING SYSTEM
 Existing work on access control in cloud are centralized in
nature. Except and , all other schemes use ABE.

 The scheme in uses a symmetric key approach and does not


support authentication.

 The schemes do not support authentication as well.

 It provides privacy preserving authenticated access control in


cloud.
Contd…

 However, the authors take a centralized approach


where a single key distribution centre (KDC) distributes
secret keys and attributes to all users.
DISADVANTAGES OF EXISTING SYSTEM

 The scheme in uses asymmetric key approach and does not


support authentication.

 Difficult to maintain because of the large number of users


that are supported in a cloud environment.
PROPOSED SYSTEM
 We propose a new decentralized access control
scheme for secure data storage in clouds that
supports anonymous authentication.

 In the proposed scheme, the cloud verifies the


authenticity of the series without knowing the user’s
identity before storing data.
Contd…
 Our scheme also has the added feature of access
control in which only valid users are able to decrypt
the stored information.

 The scheme prevents replay attacks and supports


creation, modification, and reading data stored in the
cloud.
ADVANTAGES OF PROPOSED SYSTEM

 Distributed access control of data stored in cloud so that only


authorized users with valid attributes can access them.

 Authentication of users who store and modify their data on the


cloud.

 The identity of the user is protected from the cloud during


authentication.

MODULES:

 File Access Control
 Policy Renewal
A. Encryption / Decryption

 We used RSA algorithm for encryption/Decryption.


This algorithm is the proven mechanism for secure
transaction. Here we are using the RSA algorithm
with key size of 2048 bits. The keys are split up and
stored in four different places. If a user wants to
access the file he/she may need to provide the four
set of data to produce the single private key to
manage encryption/decryption.
1. File Upload

 The client made request to the key manager for the


public key, which will be generated according to the
policy associated with the file. Different policies for
files, public key also differs. But for same public key
for same policy will be generated. Then the client
generates a private key by combining the
username, password and security credentials. Then
the file is encrypted with the public key and private
key and forwarded to the cloud.
2. File Download

 The client can download the file after completion of


the authentication process. As the public key
maintained by the key manager, the client request
the key manager for public key. The authenticated
client can get the public key. Then the client can
decrypt the file with the public key and the private
key.
C. Policy Revocation for File Assured
Deletion
 The policy of a file may be revoked under the
request by the client, when expiring the time period
of the contract or completely move the files from
one cloud to another cloud environment. When any
of the above criteria exists the policy will be
revoked and the key manager will completely
removes the public key of the associated file.
D. File Access Control

 Ability to limit and control the access to host systems


and applications via communication links. To
achieve, access must be identified or authenticated.
After achieved the authentication process the users
must associate with correct policies with the files. To
recover the file, the client must request the key
manager to generate the public key.
E. Policy Renewal

 Policy renewal is a tedious process to handle the


renewal of the policy of a file stored on the cloud.
Here we implement one additional key called as
renew key, which is used to renew the policy of the
file stored on the cloud. The renew key is stored in
the client itself.
