“…To ensure that the patient-doctor relationship runs smoothly, patients must have faith in the healthcare system to keep their data private [ 17 ]. Studies have shown that confidentiality may be achieved by access control [ 52 , 62 ] and authentication [ 45 , 76 ]. A Mutual Authentication and Secret Key (MASK) establishment protocol has been presented by Masud et al in the field of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) in COVID-19 patients.…”

Cloud computing is among the most beneficial solutions to digital problems. Security is one of the focal issues in cloud computing technology, and this study aims at investigating security issues of cloud computing and their probable solutions. A systematic review was performed using Scopus, Pubmed, Science Direct, and Web of Science databases. Once the title and abstract were evaluated, the quality of studies was assessed in order to choose the most relevant according to exclusion and inclusion criteria. Then, the full texts of studies selected were read thoroughly to extract the necessary results. According to the review, data security, availability, and integrity, as well as information confidentiality and network security, were the major challenges in cloud security. Further, data encryption, authentication, and classification, besides application programming interfaces (API), were security solutions to cloud infrastructure. Data encryption could be applied to store and retrieve data from the cloud in order to provide secure communication. Besides, several central challenges, which make the cloud security engineering process problematic, have been considered in this study.

SummaryCloud computing (CC) refers to the on‐demand availability of network resources, particularly data storage and processing power, without requiring special or direct administration by users. CC, which just made its debut as a collection of public and private data centers, provides clients with a unified platform throughout the Internet. Cloud computing has revolutionized the world, opening up new horizons with bright potential due to its performance, accessibility, low cost, and many other benefits. Due to the exponential rise of cloud computing, systems based on cloud computing now require an effective data security mechanism. Comprehensive security policies, corporate security culture, and cloud security solutions are used to ensure the level of cloud data security. Many techniques exist to protect data communication in the cloud environment, including encryption. Encryption algorithms play an important role in information security systems and various cloud computing‐based systems. Current researchers have focused on lightweight cryptography, genetics‐based cryptography, and machine learning (ML) algorithms for security in CC. This review study analyses CC security threats, problems, and solutions that use one or more algorithms. The work discusses several lightweight cryptographies, genetics‐based cryptography and different ML algorithms that are used to overcome cloud security issues, including supervised, unsupervised, semi‐supervised, and reinforcement learning. Moreover, we enlist future research directions to secure CC models.
