FYP-Security mechanism for cloud

Details of the project:

The project created is a security mechanism prototype in where data can be uploaded to the cloud However within the scope of this project the cloud was a University Testbed, hence for simplicity i have used local files as the cloud if you were to connect to the load you would be using the cloud providers service string instead of the local file path

however there is another aspect of how i store user accounts and key values , there are stored in an embedded database , password are stored using hash and salt however the key values are not secure it was discussed to have them on an external drive however i kept them locally within the embedded database for testing purposes as this is a prototype

Running the project:

This project was ran within intelliJ IDEA as all the resources were able to be processed through the IDE, i used tomcat,commons-fileupload and derby which are easily accessible. the details of tomcat are displayed below and ensure the commons file and derby files are within the web-INF
