Cloud computing is a new paradigm that combines several computing concepts and technologies of the Internet creating a platform for more agile and cost-effective business applications and IT infrastructure. This is advantageous in several applications. One of the most popular services of cloud computing is data outsourcing, which is constantly carried out to hybrid or public cloud. For reasons of cost and convenience, as many large enterprises such as personal health records, emails, income tax and financial reports move their business-critical data and applications to the cloud and enjoy the benefits of remote storage and management. But the confidentiality and security of data is being the major concern. In this paper, we provide a data security analysis and solution for privacy protection framework during data migration. A Secure Socket Layer (SSL) is established with the AWS cloud services and a migration ticket with minimum privilege is introduced. Further, data encryption is done using Prediction Based Encryption (PBE) where the ticket holds the ID and the password for encryption process and the password should match for the decryption process to retrieve the source file from cloud environment.
