Abstract

Cloud computing, a relatively recent innovation, enhances potential without requiring costly hardware or software updates. It reduces overall system costs by facilitating resource sharing across hardware, software, and platforms. Its widespread adoption and practicality have made it indispensable in today's business world. However, its popularity and reliance on third parties also make it a prime target for cybercriminals. For service providers, security is crucial to gaining customer trust and maintaining a positive brand image. Consequently, many large businesses are shifting their services to the cloud to benefit from its cost-effective and efficient infrastructure sharing. With an abundance of data stored remotely and third-party involvement, prioritizing security is essential. Various security algorithms have been evaluated for their ability to protect sensitive data with minimal resource consumption. This study focuses on data integrity, considering ECC and RC6 as alternatives to ECC + RC6 and MD5. It proposes an enhanced security system based on the ECC and RC6 algorithms and the Role-based Access Control Model. To demonstrate the system's effectiveness, a public cloud application using Java technology was created. The application's computation time for different file sizes and formats was analyzed, offering insights into its performance and potential for secure cloud computing.
