Abstract
In recent decades, Cloud computing has gained importance in the field, whether it is the IT sector, the Health sector or Supply Chain Management. Thus, due to its convenience, many people are turning towards the Cloud. Therefore, this demand creates the need for a new CSP to come into the market so that end users can store and share their private and sensitive data. Nevertheless, the greatest concern in Cloud Security is the customer’s utilization and the prevention of the services. Hence, the following security measures have been taken by the cloud service provider. This paper aims to enhance the level of password protection. To overcome this, we have proposed a password security technique which is known as the string mutation technique to avoid such attacks. Also, the password is stored after applying the md5 hash which is the popular method of converting the plain text password into a hashed format. We have employed them. Thus it can be stated that the described technique can be applied through the Net platform. In the result section, the result of execution has been represented.
