Latest research in Encryption and Key Management in Cloud Computing focuses on developing robust cryptographic mechanisms and key management frameworks to ensure data confidentiality, integrity, and secure access in multi-tenant cloud environments. Studies highlight approaches such as attribute-based encryption, proxy re-encryption, and hybrid cryptosystems to enable fine-grained access control and secure data sharing across distributed cloud infrastructures. Research also addresses challenges related to dynamic key distribution, key revocation, and secure key storage while maintaining efficiency and scalability for large-scale cloud systems. Additionally, advanced key management solutions integrate with cloud-native services, supporting automated key lifecycle management and compliance with security standards, thereby strengthening overall cloud security and resilience.
