Abstract
The cloud computing (CC) network is designed to tackle the security and
privacy challenges of centralized cloud services by distributing computing and storage
resources among networked nodes. Cloud computing, on the other hand, is restricted by
the performance of linked devices, posing problems in state authorization, stats
encryption, consumer privacy and more. Blockchain technology (BT) is the most
popular circulated network technology right now. It is utilized in numerous fields like
bitcoin, IoT, etc., to tackle the consistent issue of distributed data. The difficulties that
CC networks present for security and privacy are covered in this chapter. Analysis and
solutions brought to edge computing networks by BT in terms of data encryption,
authentication and user privacy. In this chapter, the advantages of combining the cloud
computing network with blockchain technology will be discussed. Finally, memory,
workload, and latency problems for related future studies have been discussed.
