Abstract

This paper manages the secure searching, stockpiling and recovery of client information in the cloud framework. Different services of cloud, security issues and security necessities of cloud information being talked about. We have utilized fuzzy keyword searching scheme to seek and recover the encrypted data by utilizing wild card technique. We have devised a new approach of double encryption framework in light of authentication of the server to give more grounded security to the current fuzzy keyword searching techniques. We have coordinated symmetric and asymmetric encryption algorithms to improve information security. This work, for the most part, concentrates on authentication of the server to enhance the security framework and shield sensitive client’s information from unauthorized exposure.
