Abstract
Cloud computing has been imagined as the cutting edge building design of big business IT. Lamentably, the integrity of cloud
information is liable to issues because of the presence of programming disappointments and human lapses. The data should be
kept confidential and should be kept private to the public verifier. We extend this architecture by introducing consistency as well
as security. We introduce a hybrid encryption algorithm to effectively encrypt the data files of users in cloud server. The hybrid
algorithm supports the data confidentiality, privacy preserving of data. Together with this, system supports data sharing by
maintaining consistency.
Keywords: Cloud Server, Third Party Auditor, Consistency, Integrity, Privacy

I. INTRODUCTION
Cloud computing is the conveyance of processing administrations over the Internet. Cloud administrations permit people and
organizations to utilize programming and equipment that are overseen by outsiders at remote areas. With expanding number of
customers, store their vital information in remote servers in the cloud, without leaving a duplicate in their nearby PCs. In some
cases the information put away in the cloud are important to the point that the customers must guarantee it is not lost or debased.
Despite the fact that it is anything but difficult to check information honesty after totally downloading the information to be
checked, downloading a lot of information only for checking information respectability is a misuse of correspondence data
transfer capacity. Henceforth, a considerable measure of works have been done on planning remote information uprightness
checking conventions, which permit information honesty to be checked without totally downloading the information.
Additionally, clients ought to have the capacity to quite recently utilize the distributed storage, without being agonizing over
the need to check its respectability. Therefore, empowering open certainty for distributed storage is of discriminating
significance and request with the goal that clients can fall back on an outsider verifier (TPA) to check the uprightness of
outsourced information and be effortless. To safely present a compelling TPA, the evaluating procedure ought to acquire no new
vulnerabilities toward client information protection, and acquaint no extra online weight with client. The TPA ought to have the
capacity to proficiently review the cloud information stockpiling without requesting duplicate of information and with no extra
online burden for data owners. Also, any possible leakage of an owners outsourced data toward a TPA through the auditing
protocol should be prohibited.
The primary objective of this work is to acquaint a hybrid encryption calculation with viably scramble the information
documents of clients in cloud server. The calculation bolsters the information secrecy, security safeguarding of information.
Together with this, framework bolsters information sharing by looking after consistency.

Sathiskumar R et al [16] suggested that the issue of TPA if Third-party-auditor utilizes information as well as alter the
information than how information proprietor or client will think about this issue. Here the client has two sorts' keys, one of which
just the proprietor knows called private key and another which is known not called public key. They coordinate both the
information it must be same as the sent one on the sender can't deny that they sent it. The downloading of information for its
respectability check is not possible undertaking since its expensive on account of the transmission cost over the system. They
proposed Encryption and Proxy encryption calculation to secure the protection and trustworthiness of outsourced information in
cloud Environments.
TANENBAUM et al [20] proposes two sorts of consistency models called data centric consistency model and client centric
consistency model. The data centric model spotlights on the interior stockpiling of a framework. The principle drawback of the
data centric model is that for a client its truly doesn't have to know whether the inner stockpiling contains any stale duplicates or
not all that the client centric model. It concentrates on the particulars that the client needs yet it doesn't fulfill the monotonic read
consistency.
W. VOGELS [21] says that strong consistency is not needed practically speaking and it is extremely costly to accomplish
strong consistency. At that point, took after the work on accomplishing distinctive levels of consistency in a cloud and
discovered the consistency properties gave by business clouds and had numerous helpful discoveries. Existing business clouds
doesn't give strong consistency (Google's MegaStore and Microsoft's SQL Data Services), and gives just feeble consistency
called possible consistency (Amazon's simpleDB and Google's BigTable) likewise depicted a few answers for accomplish
diverse levels of consistency while conveying database applications on Amazon S3. Be that as it may, the consistency
prerequisite relies on upon time and may differ as indicated by time contingent upon genuine accessibility of the information. In
that environment analyze countless information access examples, taking into account their own consistency prerequisites. In this
way to give a gathering of more various business forms the diverse examples are given.

D. Hashing
A hash capacity is any capacity that can be used to framework data of subjective size to electronic data of modified size. The
values returned by a hash capacity are called hash values, hash codes, hash aggregates, or essentially hashes. One main
utilization is a data structure called a hash table, generally utilized as a part of PC programming for fast information lookup.
Hash functions quicken table or database lookup by identifying copied records in a huge document. A sample is discovering
comparable extends in DNA sequences. They are additionally valuable in cryptography. A cryptographic hash function permits
one to effectively confirm that some info information coordinates a put away hash esteem, yet makes it difficult to develop any
information that would hash to the same esteem or locate any two one of a kind information pieces that hash to the same worth.
This rule is utilized by the PGP calculation for information approval and by numerous secret word checking frameworks.
E. RC4
RC4 is found to be a stream cipher which is also a symmetric key algorithm. The same algorithm is utilized for both encryption
and decoding as the information stream is essentially XORed with the produced key succession. The key stream is totally free of
the plaintext utilized. It uses a key of variable length whose value ranges from 1 to 256 bit to establish a 256-bit state table. The
state table is used for coming about time of pseudo-irregular bits and a while later to deliver a pseudo-arbitrary stream which is
XORed with the plaintext to give the figure content The algorithm consist of mainly two stages: introduction, and operation. In
the introduction organize the 256-bit state table, S is populated, utilizing the key, K as a seed. When the state table is setup, it
keeps on being changed in a normal example as information is encrypted [12].
The progressions for RC4 encryption calculation is as per the following:
Get the information to be encoded and the chosen key.
Initiate two string arrays.
Create one array with numbers from 0 to 255.
Fill up the other array with the chosen key.
Randomize the first array contingent upon the key in array.
The first array is randomized inside itself to create the last key stream.
XOR the last key stream with the information to be scrambled to give cipher text
177
In the event that the plain text is littler than 16 bytes then it must be padded. Basically said the piece is a reference to the bytes
that are prepared by the algorithm.
Extensively talking the encryption/decryption should be possible by means of symmetric key or asymmetric key.In symmetric
algorithms, both sides offer the mystery key for both encryption/decryption, and from privacy discerning it is important that this
key is not traded off, in light of the fact that falling information will then be bargained. Symmetric encryption/decryption oblige
less power for reckoning. Then again asymmetric algorithms utilization sets of keys, of which one key is utilized for encryption
while other key is utilized for decryption [24].
2) Blowfish Algorithm
An encryption calculation assumes a critical part in securing the information in putting away or exchanging it. The encryption
calculations are sorted into Symmetric (mystery) and Asymmetric (public) keys encryption. In Symmetric key encryption or
mystery key encryption, one and only key is utilized for both encryption and unscrambling of information.
In Symmetric key encryption or mystery key encryption, stand out key is utilized for both encryption and decoding of
information.
Eg: Data encryption standard (DES), Triple DES, Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), Blowfish Encryption Algorithm.
In asymmetric key encryption or public key encryption it utilizes two keys, one for encryption and other for unscrambling.
Eg: RSA
Blowfish was outlined in 1993 by Bruce Scheier. It is a quick, distinct option for existing encryption calculations such AES,
DES and 3 DES etc. Blowfish is a symmetric square encryption calculation composed in thought with,
Fast: Encryption should be possible on substantial 32-bit chip at a rate of 26 clock cycles per byte.
Compact: It is conceivable to keep running in under 5K of memory.
Simple: It utilizes expansion, XOR, lookup table with 32-bit operands.
Secure: It has variable key length, it can be in the scope of 32 to 448 bits: default 128 bits key
C. Consistency as a Service
A cloud service provider (CSP) will keep up different replicas for every single bit of information on geologically dispersed
servers with a specific end goal to give showing up dependably on access. The principle issue of utilizing the replication
Technique as a part of clouds is that on an overall scale it is exceptionally costly to accomplish strong consistency. The
consistency model comprises of an information cloud that is kept up by a CSP, and users aggregate that constitute a review
cloud. The review cloud will check whether the information cloud gives the guaranteed level of consistency or not [19].
A two-level auditing model comprises of every user who redesigns his operations in a user operation table UOT which is
called as a local trace of operations. Nearby or local auditing can be performed freely by every user with his own particular UOT.
At the point when a user transfers his information, the relating logical and physical vectors which will shape his UOT is
upgraded to the administrator of every user bunches. This will constitutes the worldwide auditing. The administrator will send
their UOTs to the comparing user to which the information has a place, which will perform nearby auditing with a neighborhood
hint of operations.
D. CaaS Model
A cloud service provider (CSP) will keep up various imitations for every single bit of The CaaS model comprises of a huge
information cloud and numerous little review clouds. The CSP deals with the substantial information cloud. The little various
review cloud can be the users or clients taking a shot at an occupation, for example, an archive or a task. The textures are
checked on every review cloud by regional standards and all around then after that the information is exchanged to the vast
information cloud by specific tenets.[19]
E. UOT(User Operation Table)
One of the principle systems is producing the UOT. For putting away the local operations every user keeps up their own UOT.
The textures are checked utilizing the User Operation Table. The UOT records every one of the operations and their comparing
logical vector and physical vector. The logical vector increases by one when an occasion happens that can be a read, compose,
send message, and receive message and so forth. The physical vector is augmented as the time passes. And these two vectors are
send alongside the messages that must be send. The physical vector and the logical vector are overhauled with its most extreme
esteem in the wake of accepting at the user side.
F. Auditing
Consistency is the primary issue in cloud processing while duplicating every bit of information for giving dependably on access.
In this paper proposing a two level auditing structure called local level auditing and worldwide level auditing. In local level
auditing, every users in the review cloud will perform the auditing exclusively with their own particular UOT. In the local level
auditing we are concentrating on monotonic read consistency and read your compose consistency. At the point when going to the
worldwide level auditing, we have to choose an inspector from the cloud. The determination of the evaluator is done
occasionally. Subsequent to selecting the reviewer the various users in the review cloud need to exchange their UOT to the
178
inspector and the examiner perform the worldwide level auditing with that UOT. That is in short we can say that local level
auditing is performed locally and worldwide level auditing is performed all inclusive.

The file is exactly stored in encrypted format. The figure given below shows the encrypted file which was stored by a user.
After decryption the data file obtained is as follows. The decrypted file is exactly the same file that has uploaded.
The file obtained after the combined encryption is as above. This encrypted file is stored in the server data base. Thus the file
backup is always present in the server and cannot be attacked since the data is in the encrypted form.
G. Performance Analysis
The evaluation is meant to evaluate the results by using block ciphers. Hence, the heap information (plaintext) is separated into
littler square size according to algorithm settings as given in Table below.

Simulation results for the time consumption are shown Fig.3. The outcomes demonstrate the prevalence of Blowfish
calculation over different calculations in terms of the processing time. Another point can be noticed here that AES has an
advantage over other RSA DES in terms of time consumption and throughput. RSA requires the greatest execution time for
processing. RSA requires 1875 milliseconds which is very much higher than AES, Blowfish and DES. This is considered as the
disadvantage of RSA which requires more time in encryption and decryption. DES takes less time than RSA which is not very
much more than AES. The execution time for AES is better than DES which is 594 milliseconds. Blowfish is having the least
execution time than others which is only 532 milliseconds.
Simulation results for the comparison of memory consumption are shown in Fig.4. Here RSA is taking very less memory than
other algorithms. But the increased execution time for RSA makes it less considerable. The Blowfish algorithm takes the next
position in consuming less memory. The memory requirement of Blowfish is 2672104 bytes.
The AES requires 2681744 bytes memory which is more than RSA and Blowfish but less than DES. DES is taking 2682520
bytes which is higher when compared to RSA, Blowfish and AES algorithm.
VI. CONCLUSION
Cloud computing has been imagined as the cutting edge building design of big business IT. Rather than customary undertaking
IT arrangements, where the IT administrations are under legitimate physical, sensible, and faculty controls, cloud computing
moves the application programming and databases to servers in expansive server farms on the Internet, where the administration
of the information and administrations are not completely reliable. The proposed framework is suitable for giving integrity
assurance of information by performing auditing and in addition information sharing by looking after consistency. It promise that
the TPA would not realize any learning about the information substance put away on the cloud server amid the productive
auditing procedure, which not just wipes out the weight of cloud client from the tedious and perhaps lavish auditing undertaking,
181
additionally mitigates the users' apprehension of their outsourced information spillage. The system supports privacy and is turned
out to be secure against an untrusted server. The hybrid algorithm underpins the information secrecy, security saving of
information and Consistency as a service model is introduced, which gave guaranteed level of consistency
