“…Similarly, the schemes in [83], [84] cannot protect against secret key guessing attacks. Based on the blockchain technology, an anonymous user authentication technique is developed in [55] for cloud services. However, the deployed blockchain technology is storage and computationally extensive [85].…”

“…It is also evident that while majority of these approaches support accountability, they can leak the private keys belonging to the cloud clients. In addition, many of these techniques incur heavy overheads during the authentication process [55]. Although three-factor authentication approaches are somehow more robust than two-factor schemes, they have some vulnerabilities.…”

The adoption of cloud computing has continued to grow, owing to its broad network access, remote accessibility, scalability, on demand self-service, rapid elasticity and resource pooling. In this environment, numerous devices are deployed to access the cloud data and services. This potentially increases the attack services, more so in public clouds. As such, the biggest challenge is the secure data exchange over insecure open network channels. This issue has seen the development of numerous security solutions over the recent past. In this paper, a survey of these security schemes, techniques and methods is provided. The findings indicate that majority of these methods have vulnerabilities that expose users to many attacks. Additionally, some of these security solutions have extremely high complexities that make the cloud communications inefficient.

The emergence of cloud computing has enabled millions of devices across the globe to communicate and exchange massive amounts of data that is classified as private with each other. Given that these devices and platforms are scattered in different geographical areas, communicating with IoTs all the time, the issue of data security, in particular, assurance of data privacy has arisen. Several attempts in mitigating this issue has been by both academic and industry researchers in terms of technology, practices and protocols but it still remains a serious challenge even as cloud computing forges into the future. As a result, both individuals and organizations whose private data are held in the cloud are getting jittery due to the frequent data compromise or exposure in the cloud servers. This paper reviews the various challenges in data privacy and the mechanisms and techniques proposed by various researchers in bid to mitigate them and create a trustworthy cloud environment. It undertakes a comparative research analysis of the existing research work on data privacy protection techniques that have been proposed and implemented in the cloud computing environment.
