Abstract

The invention of cloud computing offers elastic storage services in pay-per-use policies and hence organizations store their data in cloud servers. A cybercriminal can hack the sensitive documents in the cloud and sell it for mere profit or a cloud server may be curious to learn the contents of documents. Though many works for securely distributing the keys to the mobile cloud users have been proposed, they are vulnerable to attacks and incur high computational and communication overheads. This research work addresses the security issues pertaining to secure group communication during the file upload and download over public clouds. This research is a pioneering attempt to securely transfer the keys, upload and download the documents from the cloud. The security analysis ascertains the effectiveness of the protocol and the experimental results confirm the efficiency of the proposed protocol.
