Spacing detection of Duplication in Textual Data for Secured Cloud Environment

– The rapid increase in textual data in navigation tasks for devices like GPS or smart assistants creates challenges for managing and storing data in large-scale systems. Data deduplication, which reduces storage needs by eliminating duplicate data, offers a solution but raises security concerns. This paper introduces DEDUCT, a new method that combines cloud-side and client-side deduplication to achieve high data compression while protecting data privacy. Designed for devices with limited resources, such as IoT devices, DEDUCT includes lightweight preprocessing and safeguards against security risks like side-channel attacks. Testing on a navigation dataset shows that DEDUCT can compress data by up to 66%, significantly cutting storage costs while keeping data secure, making it an efficient choice for managing large-scale data systems
