Openstack Swift encrypted data deduplication Key Distribution Protocol

Data deduplication is an important technique for cloud storage savings. These techniques are especially important for encrypted data because data deduplication over plaintext is basically vulnerable for data confidentiality. We examined encrypted data deduplication with the aid of a key issuing server and compared Convergent Encryption with a technique created by M.Bellare et al. In addition, we implemented this technique over not only Dropbox but also an open cloud storage service, Openstack Swift. We measured the performance for this technique over Dropbox and Openstack Swift. According to our results, we verified that the encrypted data deduplication technique with the aid of a key issuing server is a feasible and versatile method.
