Abstract: Cloud computing is an extremely popular technology in today's world and its popularity arises from its ability to store, process, manage, and retrieve data from anywhere at any time. Along with its many advantages, security and privacy have proven to be a major setback for this technology. Security concerns of cloud data include its protection from data breaches, hijacking of accounts, insider threat, malware injection, abuse of cloud services, DOS attacks, insufficient due diligence, insecure APIs, shared vulnerabilities, and data loss. Encryption algorithms that address these concerns have been reviewed along with the jumbling salting algorithm and its applications. The main goal of this paper is to propose a framework for cloud encryption using the CloudJS algorithm and to discuss the results (in standalone machine) for the same.

Keywords: cloud computing; cloud security; data encryption; jumbling salting algorithm.
