Honey Bee Based Trust Management System for Cloud Computing

ICTACT Journal on Soft Computing, 2013

Software as a service or (SaaS) is a new software development and deployment paradigm over the cloud and offers Information Technology services dynamically as "on-demand" basis over the internet. Trust is one of the fundamental security concepts on storing and delivering such services. In general, trust factors are integrated into such existent security frameworks in order to add a security level to entities collaborations through the trust relationship. However, deploying trust factor in the secured cloud environment are more complex engineering task due to the existence of heterogeneous types of service providers and consumers. In this paper, a formal trust management model has been introduced to manage the trust and its properties for SaaS in cloud computing environment. The model is capable to represent the direct trust, recommended trust, reputation etc. formally. For the analysis of the trust properties in the cloud environment, the proposed approach estimates the trust value and uncertainty of each peer by computing decay function, number of positive interactions, reputation factor and satisfaction level for the collected information.

Cloud computing offers distributed and shared computing resources and services that belong to different service providers and websites. Before truly benefiting from cloud computing, there are several issues associated to it which need to be addressed in the first place. One of the most important aspects that needs special attention pertains to the cloud security. Cloud computing has the important component as trust management. In this paper, we look at some security services practices like authentication, confidentiality and integrity as well as the trust management. A critical analysis of the trust models along with some gaps in the existing models is also reported herein.

Cloud computing is a model which pays to easy availability, distributed and comprehensive aggregation computing resources and configurable common computing. In cloud computing, abilities based on information technology can be accessible as the service that doesn't need accurate knowledge based on structural technologies and with less management effort. Regarding to this, one of the most important issues will be the security issue for novel technologies. So we tried to review these security affairs and we emphasize that even there are several security enhancement approaches, but a comprehensive cloud computing approach should be presented in IT world. Availability of data and information privacy and services in cloud computing area cannot solve the security of cloud computing and new strategies and technologies should be used together for protection of total system. The data security and privacy issue in cloud environment is more important rather than the usual network because the information in cloud computing environment is significantly related to the network and server. In this regard these problems had been caught up the enhancement in cloud computing area and also security affairs are considered as the main problem.

— Distributed computing gives Software as service (Saas) ,Platform as service(Paas) and Infrasrtucture as a service(Iaas).Cloud figuring condition having a few issues like protection and security. Trust administration is a standout amongst the most difficult issue. Shielding a specific cloud benefit from a few assaults like agreement attack(Such as client may give misdirecting criticism about specific cloud services)and Sybil attack(such as a solitary client can make numerous accounts..i.,e noxious user).In this paper we talk about cloudarmor that gives notoriety based trust administration to cloud administrations. A notoriety based trust administration system gives set of functionalities to convey Trust as a service(Taas). Taas incorporates i)Zeroknowledge believability evidence convention to demonstrate validity of the consumers criticism and jam client security, ii)a validity show it will measures te validity of input to shield cloud administrations from malevolent client. what's more, iii)an accessibility model to deal with the accessibility of the trust administration.

In the last few years, due to the benefit of solving large-scale computational problems, researchers have been developed multicloud infrastructures. The trust-related issue in multiclouds includes more complicated content and new problems. A new trust management framework for multicloud environments is proposed in this article. The proposed framework used a combination of objective and subjective trust values to calculate the cloud service provider’s trust values. This new framework can identify and rectify fake feedbacks from other feedbacks. Another advantage of this framework is applying fuzzy rules to calculate trust values. Two main components of the proposed framework are simulated in this paper. The simulation results confirm the important role of applied components. Also, this paper proposed a framework compared with other frameworks (feedback-based model, SLA-based model, and multicloud model). Simulation results show the proposed framework increased trust values rather tha...

Objectives: Objective of this work is to explore the available solutions for cloud trust and thereby to facilitate a rigid solution to address the issue in future. Methods/Statistical Analysis: Cloud Computing caters dynamic resources and on-demand services without the overhead of license, purchase and other traditional IT administration activities. Cloud is not only a buzz word in the industry but, also a most happening technological trend. While the services provided by the Cloud Computing is surplus, concern over the promising aspects are of no doubt. The barricades to cloud implementation in the reality are abundance. Findings: Amongst the barricade to cloud implementation, security and trust are considered to be the foremost issues. Trust is always a worry for the new technologies and also for distributed computing paradigm. Prospective users to Cloud Computing shall be tapped in only if the issue is precisely addressed. Minimizing the investment cost is one of the key features promised by the cloud vendors. Any security compromise towards minimizing the cost is highly intolerable. A trust solution for the Cloud Computing should balance the users worry towards trust as well as the service provision aspect. There are several promising solution to cloud trust problem exists. Application/Improvements: This work weighs some of the solutions to cloud trust and thereby highlights the potential gap between the actual requirement and the real solutions.

Nowadays number of people who outsource their data to the cloud has been increased dramatically. Cloud computing offers cost-effective dynamic, scalable and shared services for enterprises from remote data centre. However, the problem of trusting cloud computing is a highest concern for most enterprises in such a way that trust is extensively in esteem as one of the highest barrier for the acceptance and expansion of cloud computing. So there is a need of trust model which help cloud consumers to find the provider that best satisfies their trust concerns in cloud computing by measuring the trustworthiness of cloud service providers.

Cloud computing is the use of computing resources such as hardware and software that are delivered as a subscription-based service and on demand services over a network. In cloud computing environments, there are two players: cloud providers and cloud users. Users always want to send their most sensitive data to cloud service centers, which is based on the trust relationship established between users and service providers. So we require such a middleware framework of trust management that can effectively reduce user burden and improve system dependability. To increase the adoption of cloud services, a cloud broker should establish and provide trust management capacity to alleviate the worries of their users. Using SOTS [Service Operator-aware Trust Scheme], the broker can efficiently and accurately prepare the most trusted resources and thus provide more dependable resources to users. Traditionally cloud providers provide assurances by specifying technical and functional descriptions in Service level agreements (SLAs) for the services they offer. But the customers are not sure whether they can identify trustworthy cloud providers only based on its SLA. We address SOTS for trustworthy resource matchmaking across multiple clouds. In this work we can facilitate the effective utilization of SOTS in a large scale multi-cloud environment by using GTD based resource matchmaking algorithm and FSLA mechanism.

Cloud computing provides cost-efficient opportunities for enterprises by offering a variety of dynamic, scalable, and shared services. Usually, cloud providers provide assurances by specifying technical and functional descriptions in Service Level Agreements (SLAs) for the services they offer. The descriptions in SLAs are not consistent among the cloud providers even though they offer services with similar functionality. Therefore, customers are not sure whether they can identify a trustworthy cloud provider only based on its SLA. To support the customers in reliably identifying trustworthy cloud providers, we propose a multi-faceted Trust Management (TM) system architecture for a cloud computing marketplace. This system provides means to identify the trustworthy cloud providers in terms of different attributes (e.g., security, performance, compliance) assessed by multiple sources and roots of trust information.
