Abstract

Securing cloud data is still extremely significant in a time when data breaches are happening more frequently. The goal of this study is to improve the security of cloud data storage by exploring the interface between biometric authentication and encryption technologies. A robust system was created using a dataset of fingerprints obtained from Kaggle. It consists of three interactive webpages for different user roles: admin, data owner, and data user. This research inventively reduces risks related to password weaknesses, phishing attempts, and other common dangers by integrating RSA and AES encryption methods with fingerprint identification. The paper assesses how this hybrid verification strategy improves cloud login security and offers suggestions for developing more reliable systems in the cybersecurity environment.
