Privacy-Preserving Public Auditing for

Secure Cloud Storage


Abstract
Using Cloud Storage, users can remotely store their data and enjoy the on-demand
high quality applications and services from a shared pool of configurable
computing resources, without the burden of local data storage and maintenance.
However, the fact that users no longer have physical possession of the outsourced
data makes the data integrity protection in Cloud Computing a formidable task,
especially for users with constrained computing resources. Moreover, users should
be able to just use the cloud storage as if it is local, without worrying about the
need to verify its integrity. Thus, enabling public audit ability for cloud storage is
of critical importance so that users can resort to a third party auditor (TPA) to
check the integrity of outsourced data and be worry-free. To securely introduce an
effective TPA, the auditing process should bring in no new vulnerabilities towards
user data privacy, and introduce no additional online burden to user. In this paper,
we propose a secure cloud storage system supporting privacy-preserving public
auditing. We further extend our result to enable the TPA to perform audits for
multiple users simultaneously and efficiently. Extensive security and performance
analysis show the proposed schemes are provably secure and highly efficient. Our
preliminary experiment conducted on Amazon EC2 instance further demonstrates
the fast performance of the design.
