Abstract
In the constantly changing realm of digital technology, cloud computing has emerged as a pivotal paradigm, revolutionizing the way data is stored, processed, and accessed. As organizations increasingly rely on cloud infrastructures to manage their vast repositories of information, the practice of information stockpiling has become prevalent. While this approach offers unparalleled scalability and flexibility, it brings forth a myriad of security challenges that demand urgent attention. This research paper delves into the intricate web of security issues and threats that surround the phenomenon of information stockpiling in cloud computing environments. Utilizing an extensive analysis of current literature and practical examples from the real world, this study meticulously analyzes the vulnerabilities inherent in this storage strategy. Various aspects, including data privacy breaches, unauthorized access, data integrity, and service availability, are scrutinized to provide a nuanced understanding of the risks involved. Furthermore, this research identifies and evaluates contemporary security measures and also protocols, aiming to mitigate the vulnerabilities associated with information stockpiling. Techniques such as encryption, multiple attributefactor authentication, intrusion detection systems and reliable access controls are assessed for their efficacy in safeguarding data stored in the cloud.Additionally, this paper explores emerging technologies such as block chain and holomorphic encryption, examining their potential to revolutionize cloud security by ensuring confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity of stockpiled information. By critically evaluating these innovative approaches, this research contributes valuable insights to the ongoing discourse on enhancing cloud security practices.Keywords: Data Storage, Security Issues, Threat of Cloud Storage, Data Stockpiling.
