Identity-Based Integrity Verification using PDP in Multi Cloud Storage

Abstract

Cloud computing has become an important thing in computer field. Cloud computing takes information processing as a service, such as storage and computing. Data integrity is important thing in cloud storage. In certain situations, clients should store their data such as image or text in multi cloud. When the client stores his/her data on multi cloud servers, the distributed storage and integrity checking is very important. Here we propose an Identity Based Distributed Provable Data Possession (ID-DPDP) protocol for multi-cloud storage. Remote data integrity checking is important in cloud storage. It can make the clients verify whether their data is kept as it is without downloading the entire data. In some application scenarios, the clients have to store their data on multi-cloud servers. At the same time, the integrity checking protocol must be efficient in order to save the verifier’s cost.
