PENERAPAN ALGORITMA ADVANCED ENCRYPTION STANDARD (AES) UNTUK MENGAMANKAN FILE PADA LAYANAN INFRASTRUCTURE AS A SERVICE

Cloud-based storage media is one example of the development of storage media technology on computers. Data is stored on a computer where the user must create a Cloud Storage account that is accessed by the internet network. However, the security of files and data in Cloud Storage is still very vulnerable to attack in the database. Therefore, we need a strong and safe cryptographic algorithm to minimize threats to data security in Cloud Storage. Currently, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is a cipher algorithm that is secure to protect data or information that is confidential. Encryption and decryption testing with AES algorithm is then performed on eight types of files, namely images, .doc, .pdf, .xsls, .ppt, .txt, .mp3 and video. Test results for six file types show that the AES method is able to secure files. While the other two failed, namely the file type. Mp3 and video. The results obtained in this study that the Private Cloud Storage system can run well by applying the AES algorithm
