Abstract
Cloud computing is a powerful tool that has enabled access to information and opportunities on a global level. With the advancements in technology and the development of smart phones for communication, it is essential for organizations to invest in robust cyber security solutions for their mobile devices. The CIA triad has been used to protect data in the cloud. This research is aimed at analyzing the application of CIA principles in protecting data. The framework for the cloud storage system proposed in this research uses a combination of asymmetric and symmetric keys together with RSA and AES encryption algorithms to transfer data among users in a safe cloud system. When compared to the existing model, the accuracy was increased by more than 8% (AES). This research indicates a system to attain high accuracy in cloud data protection.
