The quantity of data being generated is huge with rapid increase in technology and electronic communication,which results in difficulty in management of big data cost effectively. Cloud computing along with big data provides reduction in cost and storage. But there is concern regarding privacy of data stored in public cloud as the data stored in cloud could be sensitive and the owner would not want any other to scan the data as the volume of data is huge due to increase in usage of mobile devices,the conventional cryptographic approach is not suitable. Hence in this paper we propose a methodology focusing on image data which has huge volume rather than text data. © 2016,International Journal of Pharmacy and Technology. All rights reserved.
