Cloud Computing is a new technology which is directly connected with the internet which provide on demand self service internet infrastructure where a customer can pay and use only what is needed. Cloud Computing all services are managed by third party cloud service provider. Nowadays majority using static password to login into the system or access the online accounts in cloud but never change the password which is not secure . Since Cloud computing is a quite new subject, most of the cloud providers have not yet tighten up their security and still use insecure or complicated login method. Static password thoroughly investigated and found out that it is not completing the cloud computing security requirement. Proposed solution is One Time Password and One Day Password, OTP will get expire after two minutes, if user again login will request and receive new password via email and ODP will get expire after 24 hours and on request receive new password via email for new login session. OTP/ODP used with AES encryption. This paper focuses the authentication and transmission encryption in cloud computing services.

Abstract


Cloud Computing is a new technology which is directly connected with the internet which provide on demand self service internet infrastructure where a customer can pay and use only what is needed. Cloud Computing all services are managed by third party cloud service provider. Nowadays majority using static password to login into the system or access the online accounts in cloud but never change the password which is not secure . Since Cloud computing is a quite new subject, most of the cloud providers have not yet tighten up their security and still use insecure or complicated login method. Static password thoroughly investigated and found out that it is not completing the cloud computing security requirement. Proposed solution is One Time Password and One Day Password, OTP will get expire after two minutes, if user again login will request and receive new password via email and ODP will get expire after 24 hours and on request receive new password via email for new login session. OTP/ODP used with AES encryption. This paper focuses the authentication and transmission encryption in cloud computing services.
