The Challenges Faced By Cloud Data Security

Recently the media have shown that the security breaches at a amount of high profile business networks, public cloud services and web services. In some events, confidential government data and the customer has been exposed by planned groups of hackers. Encryption keys have been stolen and to attack government and business sites. It has also been come to know that some hackers have used the utility cloud computing to implement one or more attacks.

HP supports virus scanning for cloud security

HP thinks that taking a glance into the memory of virtual machines (VMs) on its system G-Cloud is the finest way of keenly monitoring for security vulnerabilities. HP spoke that its government-leaned G-Cloud system using virus scanner technology to scrutinize against VMs being tainted by malware runs amok on cloud operations. HP also stated that matching pattern of memory contents is parallel to techniques used by virus scanners also is currently the best probable technique to fight against security hazards in cloud deployments.

Cloud Security Enhanced by New Sophisticated Encryption Scheme by Mitsubishi Electric and NTT

A combined announcement regarding the development of a new sophisticated encryption or fine grained encryption scheme has been announced by Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT) and Mitsubishi Electric Corporation. The security risks in cloud computing can be possibly solved by this fine grained encryption scheme. The most sophisticated logic in the encryption decryption mechanism is achieved by this new encryption scheme. Therefore, sophisticated and fine-grained data transmission access control is enabled.
The recent popularity of cloud computing and other advanced network systems is due to the fast development of ICT. Confidential data is however transmitted via these networks to the servers for processing. Hence, as compared to the contemporary systems which make use of symmetric and public key encryption for network security, these networks demand higher security. A more advanced encryption scheme is therefore needed by these networks.
