Abstract


Cloud computing technologies are being used by many who need computing resources such as software, platform and infrastructure as per their business requirements in terms of provisioning and pay for the usage as per actual consumption of the services based on the SLA signed by the user and cloud service provider. Software running on a physical machine is being provided as services to the end users. For the reasons of cost economies access to software that uses a database is being provided to multiple users. The access to the software is provided either directly or through a virtual machine. The software being provided as service uses the same database for many of the users who have requisitioned for the same. As a result, there could be encroachments by the users into the data of others. There is a need to secure the data belonging to several users while all of them access the data using the same application. In this paper an efficient method is presented for securing the data processed by software which is offered as a service to multiple users either directly or through virtual machines.
