Abstract

 Data is crucial for both individuals and organizations in the modern digital environment. Duplicate data contents cannot be kept since the amount of data generated is growing exponentially over time. As a result, using storage optimization strategies is a must for huge storage spaces like cloud storage. One such storage optimization method that prevents storing multiple copies of data is deduplication. Data is currently encrypted in order to ensure security and is stored in the cloud as well as other huge storage locations. This presents a challenge because deduplication cannot be applied to encrypted data. Thus, performing deduplication securely over the encrypted data in cloud appears to be a challenging task
