A Robust Lightweight Data Security Model for Cloud Data Access and Storage

In this paper, an efficient lightweight cloud-based data security model (LCDS) is proposed for building a secured cloud database with the assistance of intelligent rules, data storage, information collection, and security techniques. The major intention of this study is to introduce a new encryption algorithm to secure intellectual data, proposing a new data aggregation algorithm for effective data storage and improved security, developing an intelligent data merging algorithm for accessing encrypted and original datasets. The major benefit of the proposed model is that it is fast in the encryption process at the time of data storage and reduced decryption time during data retrieval. In this work, the authors proposed an enhanced version of the hybrid crypto algorithm (HCA) for cloud data access and storage. The proposed system provides secured storage for storing data within the cloud.
