Alteration Agent for Cloud Data Security

In the big data era, the cloud computing services have been adopted to face the emergence of data that needs to be stored and processed properly. However, these services need to provide safety mechanisms to insure its secure adoption. Thus, several solutions have been proposed including the use of secure architectures by customers. In that context, an architecture based on multi-agent systems has been proposed which aims to secure both storage and exploration of data hosted in the Cloud. In this paper, we present a brief synthesis of data security methods. We then focus on the multi-agent system architecture. Finally, we propose our solution considering the design and implementation in Java of an alteration agent which will ensure the secure storage of data stored in the Cloud. We finally present the test results of this agent on real datasets.
