Security mechanism for Android Cloud Computing

Today android devices face many resource challenges like battery life, storage, bandwidth etc. cloud computing offers advantages to users by allowing them to use infrastructures, platforms and software by cloud providers elastically in an on-demand fashion at low cost. Android Cloud Computing (ACC) provides android users with data storage and processing services in cloud, obviating the need to have a powerful device configuration(e.g. CPU speed, Memory, Capacity etc) and all resource-intensive computing can be performed in cloud. Nowadays more and more commercial applications are shifting to android and these days security becomes a big issue. With increasing use of mobile android devices, the requirement of cloud computing in android arises. In this paper, a brief review for how ACC is emerging in real world and further important issues towards security are discussed. Here security mechanism based on onion routing is proposed, which will secure the data on Android Cloud Computing.
