        abstract = {Along with the growing convenience and ease of storage of data on clouds and its OTG access, challenges of its security and confidentiality are also increasing with the same pace. Traditionally, the attempts of malicious access of data stored on clouds are considered as the major risk. At present the severity of this risk is becoming more complex. This is because, with the enhancements in technology, the number of cloud service providers is rising and this rising number is causing difficulties to administrate and monitor the overall scenario. When we think about the consequences of this, we understand that the service providers too can access the data in a malicious way and current means of security has no provisions to deal with this situation.  At present SaaS (Storage as a service) is most popular utilization of cloud computing and current security provisions are limited up to the identification of user by some credentials like user id and passwords or biometric means in some cases. The valid users may be confirmed with this but the data stored on cloud is fully available to the service providers and they can access it without restrictions. In our study, we are analyzing this unseen aspect of data security and suggesting some ways to safeguard the data from that particular kind of security threat.},
