Secure Data Sharing in Cloud Computing using Hybrid cloud

Cloud computing is fast growing technology that enables the users to store and access their data remotely. Using cloud services users can enjoy the benefits of on-demand cloud applications and data with limited local infrastructure available with them. While accessing the data from cloud, different users may have relationship among them depending on some attributes, and thus sharing of data along with user privacy and data security becomes important to get effective results. Most of the research has been done to secure the data authentication so that user’s don’t lose their private data stored on public cloud. But still data sharing is a significant hurdle to overcome by researchers. Research is going on to provide secure data sharing with enhanced user privacy and data access security. In this paper various research and challenges in this area are discussed in detail. It will definitely help the cloud users to understand the topic and researchers to develop a method to overcome these challenges. Index Terms – Cloud Computing, Security, Privacy.
