Abstract

The system focuses on proposing a robust authentication framework based on these Secure Remote Password (SRP) protocol to enhance the security of data exchange in Peer-to- Peer (P2P) cloud environments. The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm provides encryption and the SRP protocol leverages cryptographic primitives to establish mutual authentication between cloud servers and users, ensures that data, remains protected against any vulnerabilities. The system encompasses various stages, including user registration, key establishment, and secure data transmission. After user registration, the SRP protocol employs a zero-knowledge proof mechanism to maintain the security of data available on cloud servers, mitigating the risks associated with password leaks and unauthorized access. Furthermore, the protocol facilitates secure key exchange to establish a confidential communication channel between peers, enabling encrypted data transmission. The system integrates SRP protocol and AES encryption, fortifying data security in P2P cloud environments through robust authentication, ensuring a comprehensive defence against potential vulnerabilities.
