Cloud Computing has become a well-known primitive nowadays; many researchers and companies are embracing this fascinating technology with feverish haste. In the meantime, security and privacy challenges are brought forward while the number of cloud storage user increases expeditiously. In this work, we conduct an in-depth survey on recent research activities of cloud storage security in association with cloud computing. After an overview of the cloud storage system and its security problem, we focus on the key security requirement triad, i.e., data integrity, data confidentiality, and availability. For each of the three security objectives, we discuss the new unique challenges faced by the cloud storage services, summarize key issues discussed in the current literature, examine, and compare the existing and emerging approaches proposed to meet those new challenges, and point out possible extensions and futuristic research opportunities. The goal of our paper is to provide a state-of-the-art knowledge to new researchers who would like to join this exciting new field.

With the rapid development of information technology, the extensive use of cloud computing promotes technological change in the IT industry. The use of cloud storage industry is also one solution to the problem of an amount of data storing, which is traditionally large, and unimaginably redundant. The use of cloud computing in the storage system connects the user's data with network clients via the Internet. That is to say, it not only solves a lot of data storage space requirements in request, but also greatly reduces the cost of the storage system. But in the application of cloud storage, there are also many problems to be solved, even to some extent which has hindered the development of cloud storage. Among these issues, the most concerning one is cloud storage security. The following passages discuss the problem and propose a solution to it.

In recent years Cloud computing has become the infrastructure which small and medium-sized businesses are increasingly adopting for their IT and computational needs. It provides a platform for high performance and throughput oriented computing, and massive data storage. Subsequently, novel tools and technologies are needed to handle this new infrastructure. One of the biggest challenges in this evolving field is Cloud storage security, and accordingly we propose new optimized techniques based on encryption process to achieve better storage system security. This paper proposes a symmetric block algorithm (CHiS-256) to encrypt Cloud data in efficient manner. Also, this paper presents a novel partially encrypted metadata-based data storage. The (CHiS-256) cipher is implemented as part of the Cloud data storage service to offer a secure, high-performance and throughput Cloud storage system. The results of our proposed algorithm are promising and show the methods to be advantageous in Cloud massive data storage and access applications.

In order to solve the problem of growing massive of data in sensor network, we propose a new scheme of data storage for sensor network based on HDFS which is a cloud-based storage platform, it effectively alleviate the pressure of mass data storage on sensor network, and improved the scalability of storage system and part of the enhanced the data storage security on sensor network. And this scheme is based on cloud storage platform, storage the data which collected by sensors to each data node using a distributed architecture solution, and keep multiple copies of data in order to maintain its high reliability of data. As reducing the pressure of data storage, but also protects the security of stored data as shown by security analysis.

The novel advances in the field of Information Technology presented the people pleasure, luxuries and ease. One of the latest expansions in the Information Technology (IT) industry is Cloud Computing, a technology that uses the internet for storage and access of data. It is also known as on-demand computing. The end user can access personal data and applications anywhere any time with a device having internet. Cloud Computing has gained an enormous attention but it results in the issues of data security and privacy as the data is scattered on different machines in different places across the globe which is a serious threat to the technology. It has many advantages like flexibility, efficiency and scalability but many of the companies are hesitant to invest in it due to privacy concerns. In this chapter, the objective is to review the privacy and security issues in cloud storage of Big Data and to enhance the security in cloud environment so that end users can enjoy a trustworthy and reliable data storage and access.

With the features of mobility, reality augmentation, and context sensitivity, wearable devices are widely deployed into various domains. However, the sensitivity of collected data makes security and privacy protection one of the first priority in the advancement of wearable technologies. This chapter provides a study on encryption-based confidentiality protection for data storage systems in wearable platforms. The chapter first conducts a review to storage solutions in consumer wearable products and explores a two-tier, local flash memory and remote cloud storage, storage system in wearable platforms. Then encryption-based confidentiality protection and implementation methods for both flash memory and remote cloud storage are summarized. According to the interaction and integration of these two components, a categorization of confidential storage systems in wearable platforms is proposed. In addition, the benefits and selection criteria for each category are also discussed.
