A Hybrid Cloud Approach for Secure Authorized Deduplication

Jagadish ^[20] | Dr.Suvarna Nandyal

Abstract: Data deduplication is one of important data compression techniques for eliminating duplicate copies of repeating data and has been widely used in cloud storage to reduce the amount of storage space and save bandwidth. To protect the confidentiality of sensitive data while supporting deduplication the convergent encryption technique has been proposed to encrypt the data before outsourcing. To better protect data security, this work makes the first attempt to formally address the problem of authorized data deduplication. Different from traditional deduplication systems, the differential privileges of users are further considered in duplicate check besides the data itself. The work also presents several new deduplication constructions supporting authorized duplicate check in hybrid cloud architecture. Security analysis demonstrates that our scheme is secure in terms of the definitions specified in the proposed security model. As a proof of concept, the work implement a prototype of proposed authorized duplicate check scheme and conduct tested experiments using the prototype. The work shows that the proposed authorized duplicate check scheme incurs minimal overhead compared to normal operations.
