Abstract

Data and information security are one of the key issues that is persistent with growing technology. Data Security becomes the biggest challenge since more and more data are being shared and stored across network and the data can be stolen, modified, deleted or accessed by illegitimate users. Hence there is a need to secure sensitive data in such a way to alleviate threats relating to security and privacy of data. Security acts as a key challenging factor for safe storage of data. The proposed research work puts forward the idea of security architecture using biometric authentication mechanism and encryption with significant contribution to biometric image pre-processing, feature extraction and encryption algorithm. In this thesis research report we are going to work on the Cloud Data security and methods to enhance the cloud data security through the biometric and encryption authentication system where user can sign up with biometric data and after correct login they can upload any file and all files will be uploaded to Amazon AWS account in encrypted format and biometric data will also be saved in AWS S3 bucket in encrypted format. Researcher experimented with 3 different encryption algorithms such as AES, RSA and ECC and their performance was evaluated in terms of computation time. The results obtained will show us the best possible encryption system that can be used.
