Abstract: “The cloud storage technology gets a massive growth in development and attraction with respect to the growth of unstructured data (Fu et al., Trans Inf Forensics Sec 12(8):1874–1884, 2017 [11]). There are chances of privacy leakage risks for face detection and data control rights can be lost due to this schema (Dinh et al., Wirel Commun Mob Comput 13(18):1587–1611, 2013 [2]). A Three-Layer Approach is designed in order to store and access the data in a secure manner from the cloud server. The fog server concept is integrated for the current cloud in which the data can be stored on multiple nodes rather than in a single storage medium. The data gets partitioned into a number of blocks where each block’s encryption standard is monitored by the data owner (Feng, A data privacy protection scheme of cloud storage 14(12):174–176, 2015 [5, 14]). Once if any data user tries to access the file, he needs to request the file access from the cloud server, where the users can view the file in a decrypted manner and for the remaining, the data cannot be viewed in a plain text manner.“
