Abstract:

 Security of data stored in the cloud databases is a challenging and complex issue to be addressed due to the 
presence of malicious attacks, data breaches and unsecured access points. In the past, many researchers proposed security 
mechanisms including access control, intrusion detection and prevention models, Encryption based storage methods and key 
management schemes. However, the role based access control policies that were developed to provide security for the data 
stored in cloud databases based on the sensitivity of the information are compromised by the attackers through the misuse of 
privileges gained by them from multiple roles. Therefore, it is necessary to propose more efficient mechanisms for securing the 
sensitive information through attribute based encryption by analyzing the association between the various attributes. For 
handling the security issue related to the large volume of cloud data effectively, the association rule mining algorithm has been 
extended with temporal constraints in this work in order to find the association among the attributes so that it is possible to 
form groups among the attributes as public attributes with insensitive data, group attributes with medium sensitive data and 
owner with highly sensitive attributes and data for enhancing the strength of attribute based encryption scheme. Based on the 
associations among the attributes and temporal constraints, it is possible to encrypt the sensitive data with stronger keys and 
algorithms. Hence, a new key generation and encryption algorithm is proposed in this paper by combining the Greatest 
common divisor and the Least common multiple between the primary key value and the first numeric non key attribute that is 
medium sensitive attributes and data present in the cloud database for providing secured storage through effective attribute 
based encryption. Moreover, a new intelligent algorithm called Elliptic Curve Cryptography with Base100 Table algorithm is 
also proposed in this paper for performing encryption and decryption operations over the most sensitive data for the data 
owners. From the experiments conducted in this work, it is observed that the proposed model enhances the data security by 
more than 5% when it is compared with other existing secured storage models available for cloud.
