Fast Hybrid Cryptosystem for Enhancing Cloud Data Security Using Elliptic Curve Cryptography and DNA Computing

Abstract

Now a day’s Security in cloud computing is one of the broad areas for researchers. Cloud computing is a term that involve to deliver the services over the Internet. So, it requires the security upgrade in data transmission approach. One of the ways by which data in the Cloud be secured is cryptography. In fact, the high-quality cloud security can be achieved by efficient encrypting techniques. This paper investigates how the integrity and secure data transfer are improved based on the Elliptic Curve cryptography and DNA computing. Many researchers have tried to exploit the features of ECC field for security applications. In this paper, we attempt to develop a fast hybrid cryptosystem based on Elliptic Curve and DNA computing for providing security service such as confidentiality in the cloud services. The security of the proposed scheme is based on Elliptic Curve Discrete Logarithm Problem (ECDLP). Existing DNA based cryptography technique need more computational power and more processing time with larger key sizes to provide higher level of security. The main goal of our construction is to enhance the security of elliptic curve cryptosystem using DNA Computing. In this approach data stored on the cloud server in the encrypted form and even if data is accessed by the attacker, the attacker can't get the current data.
