Abstract: - Whilst the blessing of the cloud, which provides for adaptability and easy data sharing as well as storage, comes with some security doubts. We place a major responsibility on our backs of protecting the data provided by our users from any evil attempts to sneak in and also risks of being accidentally exposed and the ones that exist through shared infrastructure. This paper traverses this complex terrain by noting the need for targeted security solutions which are aimed towards dealing with the compounded nature of the fast-growing problem.
By exploring such threats as data breaches, the possible encryption breaks and the nature of server sharing we will analyze the safety of cloud-based services. We position that the existing security methods, though very necessary, are not exclusive in responding to the ones posed by the new threats.
This means we will therefore be rather flexible in our design of the data security in the cloud. By the way, we will employ innovative strategies, maybe, by replacing a word for words such as homomorphic encryption, zero-knowledge proofs, and federated learning, presenting how it holds promise for private and confidential assets. Furthermore, we investigate the exploding influence of blockchain technology, regarding the wages it might deserve in providing manipulated data authentication and creating trust.
The work in this paper creates a path towards a future when database users' virtual information in the cloud is safe and certified. Through proposing a wide-ranged approach, which equates realized ideas with well-established security frameworks, we shall lead a cloud infrastructure where stability and power would prevail.
