Security for cloud systems and virtualization cloud systems, mobile cloud systems and mobile virtualization cloud systems, and computer clusters and mobile device clusters

摘要

A computer implemented method and a cloud security system are provided for securing data in a cloud storage environment. The cloud security system receives data of multiple types from multiple sources and decodes the received data. The cloud security system stores the decoded data in one or more of multiple storage locations within the cloud storage environment and allocates one or more of multiple security actions to be performed on the stored data in each of the storage locations. The cloud security system applies multiple security algorithms to perform the allocated security actions on the stored data in each of the storage locations. The cloud security system encodes resultant data obtained from the application of the security algorithms to the stored data with a security identifier in combination with one or more of a user's authentication information, biometric data, and supplementary parameters for facilitating secure access to the resultant data.
