Abstract
Cloud computing has grown as a widely accepted concept simultaneously, as the alarms for the security of data and information. This paper seeks to establish the comprehensive roles of cryptography in tackling these issues in the Cloud environment. The study begins with the historical background of cryptography and then moves on to analyze trends in information technology before discussing on the challenges to security in cloud computing. The goal of its publication is to highlight the importance of using cryptographic technologies for the protection of information confidentiality, its integrity and compliance. The combination of literature review and the case study method was applied, pulling knowledge from examples of good cryptographic use and the lessons learned from breaches in security. They reveal how cryptology is crucial in the furthering of cloud security and in maintaining customers’ faith. Key information technology practitioners are encouraged not to relax their guard and adopt an integrated security strategy to ward off future attacks. Conclusion of the study is in synthesis of the subsequent analysis, highlighting the continued applicability of cryptography for Cloud Information System security.
