Study on Secure Cloud Computing with Elliptic Curve Cryptography
Cloud computing plays a major role by providing different resources in the form of web services like tax calculation web service, stock information web service, e-banking web service etc. But we can rely on cloud computing only when these web services are really secure enough to use. In this paper, a design of a security system for Cloud Computing is proposed using Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) to secure XML web service and associated application. To further add on, a digital ECC key is being utilized by the XML Web Services security component. It secures the data transmission over the entire network route from the client to the remote server, and effectively improves the data processing speed of the server. The design is experimented with customized java coding and its performance is analyzed and compared with existing scheme. The design is found to be more secure and faster based on the preliminary results.
Keywords: Cloud Computing, XML, Web Services security, Elliptic Curve Cryptography, private cloud.
