    Two Factor Data Security Mechanism Storage System
    (2019-09-07T11:36:09Z) A, Karthik
    Cloud storage is a model of networked storage system where data is stored in pools of storage which are generally hosted by third parties. There are many benefits to use cloud storage. The most notable is data accessibility. Data stored in the cloud can be accessed at any time from any place as long as there is network access. Storage maintenance tasks, such as purchasing additional storage capacity, can be offloaded to the responsibility of a service provider. Another advantage of cloud storage is data sharing between users. If Alice wants to share a piece of data (e.g. a video) to Bob, it may be difficult for her to send it by email due to the size of data. Instead, Alice uploads the file to a cloud storage system so that Bob can download it at anytime. Despite its advantages, outsourcing data storage also increases the attack surface area at the same time.
