dc.description.abstract | Data and information can be considered the
most precious assets in electronic communication
systems, but security has become a struggle in this
competitive world. Cloud computing has emerged as the
most exciting technology for on-demand computing. It
is now used by the military, healthcare, education,
finance, and various other organizations to handle
their large volume of information. Cloud computing has
many benefits, including efficiency, high performance,
scalability, accessibility, backup, and recovery. Security
is a primary concern in cloud computing because
everyone in the organization shares the same cloud
platform. The most significant issue for the user is
securely saving, retrieving, and transmitting data
through the cloud network and storage. Cryptography
and steganography can be defined as the most popular
techniques that can be used to enhance data security.
Cryptography scrambles the messages into an
unintelligible format, while steganography hides the
message as it is not observable to the attacker. High-level
security is given for both the sender and the receiver
inside the cloud platform when cryptography is used
along with steganography. This paper analyzes the
performance of cryptographic and steganographic
techniques and suggests the best hybrid cryptographic
algorithms and multilayer steganographic techniques
that can be combined for efficient and secure data
transmission in the cloud. This proposed system will
provide availability, integrity, authenticity,
confidentiality, and non-repudiation to the data and
information. | en_US |
