Secured Assertive Protocol for Routing in Cloud Network

Cloud computing (CC) is a computing model that combines shared computing resources and infrastructure to provide computing capabilities through the Internet to a large group of users. This ecosystem may be shared at any level and is available worldwide via the Internet. A diverse set of clients may be bartered with in exchange for various resources, infrastructure, and platforms. Accessing servers from afar is made possible by CC. Data virtualization, web browsers and enhanced cloud servers are some pre-existing technology CC employ to create cloud environments. Even the cloud might be severely affected by these security flaws in the route while reaching the cloud or the user’s device. Most information theft occurs when sensitive documents are in transit. It is therefore important to safeguard the path taken by data. Identification of a route in an unsecured environment is always a challenging one. The routing protocols developed for common networks won’t suit CC networks due to the scalability and heterogeneity. This research proposes Secured Assertive Protocol for Routing (SAPR) for a CC-based network. Data security is ensured by applying security algorithms once SAPR determines the route’s trustworthiness and if it is found to be below a certain threshold. The optimum routes may be determined on the fly using constantly updated routing tables that account for the movement of CC nodes. We use the cloudsim simulator and several common performance indicators to assess SAPR. The findings suggest that SAPR performs better than the state-of-the-art routing protocols.
