Abstract
Cloud computing offers massive scalability, immediate availability, and low cost services as major benefits, but as with most new technologies, it introduces new risks and vulnerabilities too. Despite the fact that different cloud structures and services are expanding, the cloud computing penetration has not been as envisioned. Some specific concerns have stopped enterprises from completely joining the cloud. One of the major disadvantages of using cloud computing is its increased security risks. In this study I conduct an in depth analyses of the different aspects of security issues in cloud computing and propose a file distribution model as a possible solution to alleviate those security risks. It also shows the effectiveness of the new security model as compared with those currently being used. I present, a new file storage system with variable size chunks, distributed chunk addressing, decentralized file allocation tables, spread deciphering key, randomly selected file servers, and fault tolerant chunk system.
