20120328105 | TECHNIQUES FOR ACHIEVING TENANT DATA CONFIDENTIALITY FROM CLOUD SERVICE PROVIDER ADMINISTRATORS - Techniques for achieving tenant data confidentiality in a cloud environment are presented. A daemon process within a Tenant Storage Machine (TSM) manages a key store for a particular tenant of a cloud storage environment having multiple other tenants. Just TSM storage processes are given access to the key store. Data is decrypted for the particular tenant when access is needed and data is encrypted using encryption keys of the key store when written in the cloud storage environment. | 12-27-2012 |
