Abstract
Cloud computing is one technology that provides a lot of configurable resources, enabling decentralized data execution and space. Cloud technologies have transformed the ideas of internal data storage and access to provide businesses flexibility and efficiency. Thanks to cloud services like DBaaS, users may take use of advanced database features without having to worry about the burden of traditional databases. With more organizations moving to the usage of Cloud Database Management Systems (CDBMS) to administer as well as scale their data infrastructures, the issue of data privacy and security has gained different magnitudes. This paper examines the topography of changing privacy threats in cloud settings, such as information breaches, internal assaults, illegal provider entrance, query deduction, metadata discharges, and duty management concerns. Some privacy- preserving solutions, including cryptography solutions, access control, anonymization techniques, secure multi-party computing, and secure execution environments, have been established to protect against such risks. The paper classifies the solution and analyzes their strengths, weaknesses and area in the context of cloud databases. Even when great progress has been made, there has been little real-world implementation because of such issues as performance-security trade-offs, insufficient standardization, inability to support complex queries and key management problems.
