A Cloud Database based on AES 256 GCM Encryption Through Devolving Web application of Accounting Information System

Abstract

The main objective of this research is to use AES 256 GCM encryption and decryption of a web application system database called Accounting Information System (AIS) for achieving more privacy and security in a cloud environment. A cloud environment provides many services such as software, platform, and infrastructure. AIS can use the cloud to store data to achieve accounting with more performance, efficiency, convenience, and cost reduction. On the other hand, cloud environment is not secure because data is kept away from the organization. This paper focuses on how we deal with secure sensitive data such as accounting data AIS web application at web level encryption by using AES 256 GCM encryption to store data as encrypted data at cloud in a secure manner? Accounting Information System (AIS) has very sensitive data and its need to be more secure and safe specially in cloud because it’s not saved at local servers but at another cloud service provider. The storage of encryption and decryption keys are stored in locations and devices different from those in which the database is stored in the cloud for ensuring more safety.
