Blockchain based Secure Data Storage and Access Control System using Cloud

摘要

Cloud storage today depends entirely on large storage providers. Such storage providers function as untrusted third parties that process data for storing, sending and receiving data from an entity. This style of system has many problems, such as high operating costs, software quality and data security. In this paper, we present a model of a multi-user access control system for databases that use blockchain technology to provide stable, distributed data processing. The system allows the data owner to upload the data via a web portal. So, the user who has the secret key to the particular data that has been uploaded to Cloud in encrypted form can only access the folder. Eventually, the system promotes data privacy by maintaining the immutability of the blockchain by processing it in the cloud. We have proposed a secure, blockchain-based data storage and access control system to increase the security of cloud storage.
