This document proposes new distributed deduplication systems with higher reliability for secure cloud storage. The key points are: 1. Existing deduplication systems improve storage efficiency but reduce reliability as files are only stored once in the cloud. 2. The proposed systems distribute file chunks across multiple cloud servers using secret sharing to improve reliability. 3. Security mechanisms like confidentiality and tag consistency are achieved through deterministic secret sharing rather than encryption.

However, there is only one copy for each file stored in cloud even if such a file is owned by a huge number of users. As a result, deduplication system improves storage utilization while reducing reliability. Furthermore, the challenge of privacy for sensitive data also arises when they are outsourced by users to cloud. Aiming to address the above security challenges, this paper makes the first attempt to formalize the notion of distributed reliable deduplication system. We propose new distributed deduplication systems with higher reliability in which the data chunks are distributed across multiple cloud servers. The security requirements of data confidentiality and tag consistency are also achieved by introducing a deterministic secret sharing scheme in distributed storage systems, instead of using convergent encryption as in previous deduplication systems. Security analysis demonstrates that our deduplication systems are secure in terms of the definitions specified in the proposed security model. As a proof of concept, we implement the proposed systems and demonstrate that the incurred overhead is very limited in realistic environments. MODULEDESCRIPTION: NUMBER OF MODULES: After careful analysis the system has been identified to have the following modules:

User Behavior Profiling: 3.Decoy documents. 1. Secure Deduplication: Data deduplication is a specialized data compression technique for eliminating duplicate copies of repeating data. Related and somewhat synonymous terms are intelligent (data) compression and single-instance (data) storage. This technique is used to improve storage utilization and can also be applied to network data transfers to reduce the number of bytes that must be sent. In the deduplication process, unique chunks of data, or byte patterns, are identified and stored during a process of analysis. As the analysis continues, other chunks are compared to the stored copy and whenever a match occurs, the redundant chunk is replaced with a small reference that points to the stored chunk. Given that the same byte pattern may occur dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of times (the match frequency is dependent on the chunk

This type of deduplication is different from that performed by standard file-compression tools, such as LZ77 and LZ78. Whereas these tools identify short repeated substrings inside individual files, the intent of storage-based data deduplication is to inspect large volumes of data and identify large sections – such as entire files or large sections of files – that are identical, in order to store only one copy of it. This copy may be additionally compressed by single-file compression techniques. For example a typical email system might contain 100 instances of the same 1 MB (megabyte) file attachment. Each time the email platform is backed up, all 100 instances of the attachment are saved, requiring 100 MB storage space. 2. User Behavior Profiling: We monitor data access in the cloud and detect abnormal data access patterns User profiling is a well known Technique that can be applied here to model how, when, and how much a user accesses

Such ‘normal user’ behavior can be continuously checked to determine whether abnormal access to a user’s information is occurring. This method of behavior-based security is commonly used in fraud detection applications. Such profiles would naturally include volumetric information, how many documents are typically read and how often. We monitor for abnormal search behaviors that exhibit deviations from the user baseline the correlation of search behavior anomaly detection with trap-based decoy files should provide stronger evidence of malfeasance, and therefore improve adetector’saccuracy. 3.Decoy documents. We propose a different approach for securing data in the cloud using offensive decoy technology. We monitor data access in the cloud and detect abnormal data access patterns. We launch a disinformation attack by returning large amounts of decoy information to the attacker. This protects against the misuse of the user’s real data. We use this technology to launch disinformation attacks against malicious insiders, preventing them from distinguishing the real sensitive customer data from fake worthlessdata the decoys,then,serve twopurposes: (1) Validatingwhetherdataaccessis authorizedwhenabnormalinformationaccessisdetected,and (2) Confusingthe attackerwithbogusinformation.

Cloud Computing is not just a third party data warehouse. The data stored in the cloud may be frequently updated by the users, including insertion, deletion, modification, appending, reordering, etc. One critical challenge of today’s cloud storage services is the management of the ever-increasing volume of data. According to the analysis report of IDC, the volume of data in the wild is expected to reach 40 trillion gigabytes in 2020. The baseline approach suffers two critical deployment issues. First, it is inefficient, as it will generate an enormous number of keys with the increasing number of users. Specifically, each user must associate an encrypted convergent key with each block of its outsourced encrypted data copies, so as to later restore the data copies. Although different users may share the same data copies, they must have their own set of convergent keys so that no other users can access their files. Second, the baseline approach is unreliable, as it requires each user to dedicatedly protect his own master key. If the master key is accidentally lost, then the user data cannot be recovered; if it is compromised by attackers, then the user data will be leaked. . PROPOSED SYSTEM:

Dekey using the Ramp secret sharing scheme and demonstrate that Dekey incurs limited overhead in realistic environments we propose a new construction called Dekey, which provides efficiency and reliability guarantees for convergent key management on both user and cloud storage sides. A new construction Dekey is proposed to provide efficient and reliable convergent key management through convergent key Deduplication and secret sharing. Dekey supports both file-level Deduplication. Security analysis demonstrates that Dekey is secure in terms of the definitions specified in the proposed security model. In particular, Dekey remains secure even the adversary controls a limited number of key servers. We implement Dekey using the secret sharing scheme that enables the key management to adapt to different reliability and confidentiality levels.

The advantages of placing decoys in a file system are threefold: (1) The detection of masquerade activity. (2) The confusion of the attacker and the additional costs incurred to distinguish real from bogus information, and (3) The deterrence effect which, although hard to measure, plays a significant role in preventing masquerade activity by risk-averse attackers.
