Nowadays cloud computing has become the crucial part of IT and most important thing is information security in cloud environment. Range of users can access the facilities and use cloud according to their feasibility. Cloud computing is utilized as safe storage of information but still data security is the biggest concern, for example, secrecy, data accessibility, data integrity is considerable factor for cloud storage. Cloud service providers provide the facility to clients that they can store the data on cloud remotely and access whenever required. Due to this facility, it gets necessary to shield or cover information from unapproved access, hackers or any sort of alteration and malevolent conduct. It is inexpensive approach to store the valuable information and doesn't require any hardware and software to hold the data. it gives excellent work experience but main measure is just security. In this work security strategies have been proposed for cloud data protection, capable to overpower the shortcomings of conventional data protection algorithms and enhancing security using steganography algorithm, encryption decryption techniques, compression and file splitting technique. These techniques are utilized for effective results in data protection, Client can easily access our developed desktop application and share the information in an effective and secured way.

This paper explores using chaos-based cryptography for transmitting multimedia data, mainly speech and voice messages, over public communication channels, such as the internet. The secret message to be transmitted is first converted into a one-dimensional time series, that can be cast in a digital/binary format. The main feature of the proposed technique is mapping the two levels of every corresponding bit of the time series into different multiple chaotic orbits, using a simple encryption function. This one-to-many mapping robustifies the encryption technique and makes it resilient to crypto-analysis methods that rely on associating the energy level of the signal into two binary levels, using return map attacks. A chaotic nonautonomous Duffing oscillator is chosen to implement the suggested technique, using three different parameters that are assumed unknown at the receiver side. Synchronization between the transmitter and the receiver and reconstructing the secret message, at the receiver side, is done using a Lyapunov-based adaptive technique. Achieving stable operation, tuning the required control gains, as well as effective utilization of the bandwidth of the public communication channel are investigated. Two different case studies are presented; the first one deals with text that can be expressed as 8-bit ASCII code, while the second one corresponds to an analog acoustic signal that corresponds to the voice associated with pronouncing a short sentence. Advantages and limitation of the proposed technique are highlighted, while suggesting extensions to other multimedia signals, along with their required additional computational effort.

Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) does not have fixed infrastructure centralized server which manage the connections between the nodes. Rather, the nodes in MANET move randomly. Thus, it is risky to exchange data between nodes because there is a high possibility of having malicious node in the path. In this paper, we will describe a new authentication technique using message digest 5 (MD5), hashing for dynamic MANET on demand protocol (DYMO) based on reinforcement learning. In addition, we will describe an encryption technique that can be used without the need for a third party to distribute a secret key. After implementing the suggested model, results showed a remarkable enhancement in securing the path by increasing the packet delivery ratio and average throughput. On the other hand, there was an increase in end to end delay due to time spent in cryptographic operations.

Security is one of the most important needs in network communication. Cryptography is a science which involves two techniques encryption and decryption and it basically enables to send sensitive and confidential data over the unsecure network. The basic idea of cryptography is concealing of the data from unauthenticated users as they can misuse the data. In this paper we use auto associative neural network concept of soft computing in combination with encryption technique to send data securely on communication network.

The Data Compression is a creative skill which defined scientific concepts of providing contents in a compact form. Thus, it has turned into a need in the field of communication as well as in different scientific studies. Data transmission must be sufficiently secure to be utilized in a channel medium with no misfortune; and altering of information. Encryption is the way toward scrambling an information with the goal that just the known receiver can peruse or see it. Encryption can give methods for anchoring data. Along these lines, the two strategies are the two crucial advances that required for the protected transmission of huge measure of information. In typical cases, the compacted information is encoded and transmitted. In any case, this sequential technique is time consumption and computationally cost. In the present paper, an examination on simultaneous compression and encryption technique depends on DNA which is proposed for various sorts of secret data. In simultaneous technique, both techniques can be done at single step which lessens the time for the whole task. The present work is consisting of two phases. First phase, encodes the plaintext by 6-bits instead of 8-bits, means each character represented by three DNA nucleotides whereas to encode any pixel of image by four DNA nucleotides. This phase can compress the plaintext by 25% of the original text. Second phase, compression and encryption has been done at the same time. Both types of data have been compressed by their half size as well as encrypted the generated symmetric key. Thus, this technique is more secure against intruders. Experimental results show a better performance of the proposed scheme compared with standard compression techniques.

With all data services of cloud, it's not only stored the data, although shared the data among the multiple users or clients, which make doubt in its integrity due to the existence of software/hardware error along with human error too. There is an existence of several mechanisms to allow data holders and public verifiers to precisely, efficiently and effectively audit integrity of cloud data without accessing the whole data from server. After all, public auditing on the integrity of shared data with pervious extant mechanisms will somehow affirm the confidential information and its identity privacy to the public verifiers. In this paper, to achieve the privacy preserving public for auditing, we intended an explanation for TPA using three way handshaking protocol through the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) with liberated encryption standard. Appropriately, from the cloud, we use the VerifyProof execute by TPA to audit to certify. In addition to this mechanism, the identity of each segment in the shared data is kept private from the public verifiers. Moreover, rather than verifying the auditing task one by one, this will capable to perform, the various auditing tasks simultaneously.

With the ever increasing growth of internet usage, ensuring high security for information has gained great importance, due to the several threats in the communication channels. Hence there is continuous research towards finding a suitable approach to ensure high security for the information. In recent decades, cryptography is being used extensively for providing security on the Internet although primarily used in the military and diplomatic communities. One such approach is the application of Chaos theory in cryptosystems. In this work, we have proposed the usage of combined multiple recursive generator (CMRG) for KEY generation based on a chaotic function to generate different multiple keys. It is seen that negligible difference in parameters of chaotic function generates completely different keys as well as cipher text. The main motive for developing the chaos based cryptosystem is to attain encryption that provides high security at comparatively higher speed but with lower complexity and cost over the conventional encryption algorithms.
