Abstract

Cloud computing is the latest approach that is developed for reducing the storage of space to store the data and helps the quick sharing of the data. An increase in the cloud computing users is observed that is also making the users be prone to hacker's attacks. To increase the efficiency of cloud storage encryption mechanisms are used. The encryption techniques that are discussed in this survey paper are searchable encryption, attribute-based, Identity-based encryption, homomorphic encryption, and cloud DES algorithms. There are several limitations and disadvantages of each of the given techniques and they are discussed in this survey paper. Techniques are found to be effective and they can increase the security of cloud storage systems.
