Abstract

In 2016 Perez et.al proposed a data-centric access control scheme for self- protected data that can run in untrusted CSPs. Their scheme is vulnerable to Man-in-Middle attack and uses more complex encryption methodologies. So this paper presents a solution in which security is focused on protecting the user data regardless of the cloud service provider that holds it. The solution in this paper takes advantage of Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) and encryption of data to be uploaded to cloud using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES).
