ATTRIBUTE-BASED APPROACHES TO ENHANCE DATA SHARING SECURITY AND PRIVACY IN CLOUD ENVIRONMENTS

Abstract

As cloud computing continues to gain traction across various sectors, ensuring the security and privacy of sensitive data has become paramount. This paper explores the application of Attribute-Based Data Sharing (ABDS) as a strategic solution to enhance security and privacy in cloud environments. ABDS allows data owners to define access policies based on user attributes, granting or denying access to resources dynamically.
