T SECURE DATA STORAGE IN CLOUD ENVIRONMENT USING FINGERPRINT

Abstract

Cloud computing has been envisioned as the next-generation architecture of IT enterprise. In contrast to traditional solutions, where the IT services are under proper physical, logical and personnel controls, cloud computing moves the application software and databases to the large data centers, where the management of the data and services may not be fully trustworthy. This unique attribute, however, poses many new security challenges which have not been well understood. In this article, we focus on cloud secure data storage, which has always been an important aspect of quality of service (QOS). To ensure the secure storage of user’s data in the cloud, we propose an effective and flexible bio metric authentication using finger print.
