IFCaaS: Information Flow Control as a Service for Cloud Security

With the maturity of service-oriented architecture (SOA) and Web technologies, web services have become critical components of Software as a Service (SaaS) applications in cloud ecosystem environments. Most SaaS applications leverage multi-tenant data stores as a back end to keep and process data with high agility. Although these technologies promise impressive benefits, they put SaaS applications at risk against novel as well as prevalent attack vectors. This security risk is further magnified by the loss of control and lack of security enforcement over sensitive data manipulated by SaaS applications. An effective solution is needed to fulfill several requirements originating in the dynamic and complex nature of such applications. Inspired by the rise of Security as a Service (SecaaS) model, this paper introduces “Information Flow Control as a Service ()”.  lays the foundation of cloud-delivered IFC-based security analysis and monitoring services. As an example of the adoption of the , this paper presents a novel framework that addresses the detection of information flow vulnerabilities in SaaS applications. Our initial experiments show that the framework is a viable solution to protect against data integrity and confidentiality violations leading to information leakage.

System Architecture 

Project:Overview 
Three clouds will be maintained to upload the data and if attacker comes in data will be blocked. If the downloading happening cloud will check the vulnerability and send back the data with accuracy of vulnerability. 

System Requirement 

Hardware Requirement Processor - Dual Core 
Speed - 1.1 G Hz 
RAM - 512 MB (min) 
Hard - 20 GB 
Key Board - Standard Windows Keyboard 
Mouse - Two or Three Button Mouse

Below code is for uploading the file to data center 
Alert_Service service = new Alert_Service(); 
String hibFileName = "D:\\cloud_data\\hibernate\\"+fileName; 
Alert port = service.getAlertPort(); 
port.hello(finalFile+"#"+"hibernate"); 
toReturn = "uploaded to hibernat datacenter";
