RETRACTED ARTICLE: Protecting user profile based on attribute-based encryption using multilevel access security by restricting unauthorization in the cloud environment

Abstract

Data security in centralized storage needs advancement in privacy standards because of all of the cloud. The data security in the cloud has been well provided by security industries like cloud network security, data center security, distributed security and soon, also their exist numerous techniques to preserve the privacy of cloud users. The earlier methods enforce user privacy by restricting the malicious access from various users. Data authentication is provable access to keep privacy among other standards. However, the privacy of cloud users has been breached on several occasions. To improve cloud security and enforce efficient privacy preservation, a multi-level micro access restriction algorithm has been presented in this paper. The cloud data has been indexed in multiple levels, the data present in each level has been restricted using the profile and set if encryption standards. The user request has been evaluated for its trusted access according to the access grant present in profile data. Similarly, the cloud data has been encrypted with the user key and the key belongs to the data owner. The method estimates micro access trust weight (MATW), which has been used to restrict the user from malicious access and to preserve user privacy. The method improves the performance of cloud security and introduces higher privacy preservation accuracy.
