Data security and Integrity in Cloud Computing

Cloud computing security refers to data protection, while data integrity refers to the reliability of the data. Integrity and security of data are not the same things. Therefore, both of them are very important in the field of cloud computing. A primary concern of users related to Cloud Computing is data security and integrity. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the threats and solutions associated with the problems of data security and data integrity that cloud computing users must deal with. Data protection is concerned with data security, whereas data reliability is concerned with data integrity. A data security strategy focuses on reducing the risk of leaks of trade secrets, emails, medical data, and business documents.Data privacy, security, and integrity are essential in information technology. In contrast, data integrity ensures that digital data is not corrupted and that only authorized individuals can access or edit the data (i.e., data consistency, accuracy, and reliability). Several platforms use more accessible language to make their terms more transparent, and users can trust them. Cloud computing is based on distributing computer resources across several users. Several policies are designed to ensure regulatory compliance while protecting the information, applications, and infrastructure associated with Cloud Computing. The paper provides an overview of Cloud Computing, its concepts, its significance in various applications, and solutions to issues and methods for ensuring its integrity and security. This research also discusses multiple challenges associated with cloud computing. To provide high-quality cloud data security, cloud security solutions, comprehensive security policies, and a security-conscious organizational culture are essential.

I. Introduction

Cloud Computing (CC) security aims to protect infrastructure, data, and applications in the cloud. Cloud security is a mix of controls, procedures, policies, and technologies to protect infrastructure, data, and applications in the cloud. “Security” of CC means data security, and integrity means data reliability. Data security does not imply data integrity. Cloud security is also known as data security, and Data reliability is also known as data integrity. Data protection focuses on ways to mitigate the risk of leaks, such as trade secrets, email, medical data, and business documents. These security measures are designed to protect cloud data, support regulatory compliance, preserve customer privacy, and create a user and device authentication procedures. You can change your cloud security to fit your organization’s needs, from access to traffic filtering. In addition, these rules define and manage everything in one place, reducing management costs and allowing IT teams to focus on other areas of activity. Your cloud provider or cloud security solution determines how you provide cloud protection.
