Elliptic Curve Cryptography in Cloud Computing Security
Elliptic curve cryptography in cloud computing security Manu Gopinathan ([email protected]) Øyvind Nygard ([email protected]) Kjetil Aune([email protected]) December 1st, 2015 1 Abstract Cloud computing is a technological advancement that has been growing swiftly during the last decade. In simple terms, cloud computing is a technology that enables shared, remote, on-demand and ubiquitous access to services through the Internet. It enables consumers to access applications and services that reside on remote servers, without having to allocate large amounts of storage space on their own computer and without the need for extensive compatibility configurations. Many such cloud applications provide services that are meant to handle sensitive user data and thus the protection of this data in terms of access and integrity is of major concern. Space- and time complexity of encryption algorithms can prove to be imperative when it comes to system performance. In this paper we will briefly present how elliptic curve cryptography (EEC) works, and then describe the advantages of it and how it can be used as an encryption solution to security related issues in cloud computing. 2 Introduction In this section we will briefly describe the notion of cloud computing to aid us in the discussion of ECC in cloud computing later. According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), essential characteristics for a service based on the cloud computing model are [1]: 1. On-demand self-service: The consumer can provision service capabilities, such as server time and network storage, without actively interacting with the service provider. 2. -
Refresh Your Data Lake to Cisco Data Intelligence Platform
Solution overview Cisco public Refresh Your Data Lake to Cisco Data Intelligence Platform The evolving Hadoop landscape Consideration in the journey In the beginning of 2019, providers of leading Hadoop distribution, Hortonworks and Cloudera of a Hadoop refresh merged together. This merger raised the bar on innovation in the big data space and the new Despite the capability gap between “Cloudera” launched Cloudera Data Platform (CDP) which combined the best of Hortonwork’s and Cloudera’s technologies to deliver the industry leading first enterprise data cloud. Recently, Hadoop 2.x and 3.x, it is estimated that Cloudera released the CDP Private Cloud Base, which is the on-premises version of CDP. This more than 80 percent of the Hadoop unified distribution brought in several new features, optimizations, and integrated analytics. installed base is still on either HDP2 or CDH5, which are built on Apache Hadoop CDP Private Cloud Base is built on Hadoop 3.x distribution. Hadoop developed several 2.0, and are getting close to end of capabilities since its inception. However, Hadoop 3.0 is an eagerly awaited major release support by the end of 2020. with several new features and optimizations. Upgrading from Hadoop 2.x to 3.0 is a paradigm shift as it enables diverse computing resources, (i.e., CPU, GPU, and FPGA) to work on data Amid those feature enrichments, and leverage AI/ML methodologies. It supports flexible and elastic containerized workloads, specialized computing resources, and managed either by Hadoop scheduler (i.e., YARN or Kubernetes), distributed deep learning, end of support, a Hadoop upgrade is a GPU-enabled Spark workloads, and more. -

By moving appropriate types of files to the cloud, organizations can reduce not only the amount of storage capacity that they need to purchase, but also the operational overhead involved in managing it. In addition, the cloud enables storage capacity to be increased on demand, while charging organizations only for the amount of storage that is actually utilized. Cloud storage will bring many changes to the way enterprises manage storage. -

Volume 4, Issue 5, May 2014 ISSN: 2277 128X International Journal of Advanced Research in Computer Science and Software Engineering Research Paper Available online at: www.ijarcsse.com Security Services using ECDSA in Cloud Computing S.Sathish* D.Sumathi P.Sivaprakash Computer Science and Engineering Computer Science and Engineering Computer Science and Engineering Jaisriram Group of Institutions, India PPG Institute of Technology, India PPG Institute of Technology, India Abstract— Cloud computing security is the set of control-based technologies and policies designed to comply to the rules and regulations framed by the provider team to support and protect information, data applications and infrastructure associated with cloud computing use. Cloud computing security process should address the issues faced by the cloud users. Cloud Service Provider needs to incorporate the maintenance activity in order to provide the customer's data security, privacy and compliance with necessary regulations. The Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) is a public key cryptosystem used for creation and verification of digital signatures in securing data uploaded by the cloud users. Information security concerns have been focused so that identifying unwanted modification of data, deletion of data is identified. Keywords— Cloud Computing,ECDSA,Crptography,RSA, I. INTRODUCTION Cloud computing is internet-based computing, where by shared resources, software and information are provided to computers and other devises on demand. It is a culmination of numerous attempts at large scale computing with seamless access to virtually limitless resources. Cloud Computing providers offer their services according to three fundamental models, namely Infrastructure-as-a- Service (IaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) which is illustrated in figure 1. -

Enhancing Bittorrent-Like Peer-To-Peer Content Distribution with Cloud Computing
ENHANCING BITTORRENT-LIKE PEER-TO-PEER CONTENT DISTRIBUTION WITH CLOUD COMPUTING A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Zhiyuan Peng IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE Haiyang Wang November 2018 © Zhiyuan Peng 2018 Abstract BitTorrent is the most popular P2P file sharing and distribution application. However, the classic BitTorrent protocol favors peers with large upload bandwidth. Certain peers may experience poor download performance due to the disparity between users’ upload/download bandwidth. The major objective of this study is to improve the download performance of BitTorrent users who have limited upload bandwidth. To achieve this goal, a modified peer selection algorithm and a cloud assisted P2P network system is proposed in this study. In this system, we dynamically create additional peers on cloud that are dedicated to boost the download speed of the requested user. i Contents Abstract ............................................................................................................................................. i List of Figures ................................................................................................................................ iv 1 Introduction .............................................................................................................................. 1 2 Background ............................................................................................................................. -

Scaling a Game-Sharing Platform Introduction
Level Up and SIMMER.io Down Scaling a Game-sharing Platform Introduction Much like gaming, starting a business means a lot of trial and error. In the beginning, you’re just trying to get your bearings and figure out which enemy to fend off first. After a few hours (or a few years on the market), it’s time to level up. SIMMER.io, a community site that makes sharing Unity WebGL games easy for indie game developers, leveled up in a big way to make their business sustainable for the long haul. When the site was founded in September 2017, the development team focused on getting the platform built and out the door, not on what egress costs would look like down the road. As it grew into a home for 80,000+ developers and 30,000+ games, though, those costs started to encroach on their ability to sustain and grow the business. We spoke with the SIMMER.io development team about their experience setting up a multi-cloud solution—including their use of the Bandwidth Alliance between Cloudflare and Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage to reduce egress to $0—to prepare the site for continued growth. © 2021 Backblaze Inc. All rights reserved. 500 Ben Franklin Ct. San Mateo, CA 94401 USA How to Employ a Multi-cloud Approach for Scaling a Web Application In 2017, sharing games online with static hosting through a service like AWS S3 was possible but certainly not easy. As one SIMMER.io team member put it, “No developer in the world would want to go through that.” The team saw a clear market opportunity.
