Systems and Methods for Securing Data in a Cloud Computing Environment Using In-Memory Techniques and Secret Key Encryption

摘要

In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method comprises determining, by a controller, whether a first data store is in an initialization mode. The first data store stores client data. A second data store stores credential data of the first user and credential data of a second user. An application server includes a first secret key store. An in-memory database server includes a second secret key store. The method further comprises, if the first data store is in the initialization mode, receiving, by the controller, from the second user a secret key for encrypting the client data stored in the first data store; and storing, in the first key store, the secret key. The method further comprises, in an operational mode, authenticating the first user based on the credential data of the first user; if the first user is authenticated, processing, in the application server, a user request from the first user.
