In the current environment, data security is paramount, and any confidential files we must have with us everywhere go raise chance of losing such files. To prevent this inconvenient method transporting private information, our suggested solution uses cloud to store users' myriad size in encrypted form, encrypting them using AES-256 version technique ensure that your remains secret. The user no ...

A large fraction of our information, both in the professional and private domains, is stored in the form of files on our personal computers. When we collaborate with co-workers or meet with friends, mechanisms for sharing files and file annotations are frequently required. However, centralized file sharing infrastructures are often not available or complicated to set up, and approaches like pee...

The widespread use of cloud storage in the last few years can be attributed to the existence of appealing applications such as file backup, data archival and file sharing. File sharing in particular, is implemented in different ways by distinct cloud storage services. These differences can appear at the offered permission types and in the form they are applied. We present a survey of these diff...

Grid Datafarm architecture is designed for facilitating reliable file sharing and high-performance distributed and parallel data computing in a Grid across administrative domains by providing a global virtual file system. Gfarm v2 is an attempt to implement a global virtual file system that supports a complete set of standard POSIX APIs, while still retaining the parallel and distributed data c...

Underground music file sharing communities are online social spaces that facilitate the sharing of mostly unauthorised digital content. This paper proposes underground file sharing communities as subcultures, and explores the Roswell community from theoretical perspectives of group formation and translation from Actor-network theory (ANT) to gain a better understanding of the motivations for fi...

File carving is a recovery technique which does not consider file tables or other meta-data which is used to organize data on storage media. As files can be recovered based only on their content and/or structure, this technique is an indispensable task during digital investigations. The main contribution of this paper is the description of procedures that allow for successful content-based reco...

We use a 1998-2002 cross-section dataset to analyze the claim of losses due to internet piracy made by the record industry. The results suggest that internet piracy played a significant role in the decline in music sales during the early days of file-sharing networks.

The mp3 lies at the center of important debates around intellectual property and file-sharing, but it is also a cultural artifact in its own right. This article examines the design of the mp3 from both industrial and psychoacoustic perspectives to explain better why mp3s are so easy to exchange and the auditory dimensions of that process of exchange. As a container technology for recorded sound...

While peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing is a powerful and cost-effective content distribution model, most paid-for digital-content providers (CPs) rely on direct download to deliver their content. CPs such as Apple iTunes that command a large base of paying users are hesitant to use a P2P model that could easily degrade their user base into yet another free file-sharing community. We present TP2,...
