Abstract

The outsourcing of data is a significant challenge in the modern cloud computing ecosystem when it comes to tracking unauthorized identification and access behavior. In order to overcome this issue, this research suggests a thorough method for reliable anomaly detection in cloud systems. Improving data security and offering a trustworthy monitoring system are the two main goals. The suggested approach proceeds methodically, gathering information from several sources such as user profiles, cloud logs, and access records. Using state-of-the-art tools like AWS CloudTrail and Apache Kafka, the data is carefully preprocessed, cleaned, normal-ized, and feature extracted. The representation of user behaviour patterns is greatly aided by feature engineering, which takes into account variables such as system commands, file access patterns, and frequency of logins. Various strategies are em-ployed for anomaly identification, which include unsupervised learning algorithms (like k-means and isolation forest), statistical approaches, and neural networks (like autoencoders and RNNs). Proactive security measures are guaranteed via dash-boards, automated reaction mechanisms, and real-time warnings. Offering a com-prehensive security solution, the system smoothly connects with security incident and event management (SIEM) systems. Extensive testing results demonstrate the system’s effectiveness in detecting unauthorized access, providing security staff with important information. This study adds a sophisticated framework to strengthen cloud security and improves the conversation about identity theft and unauthorized access in outsourced data settings.
