Abstract
A cloud computing system includes a virtual server outputs non-encrypted data and receives encrypted data in response to receiving a write request signal and a read request signal. A hosting server hypervisor receives the write request signal and the read request signal. In response to receiving the write request signal the hosting server hypervisor writes encrypted data corresponding to the write request signal into a storage device. In response to receiving the read request signal the hosting server hypervisor obtains encrypted data corresponding to a data read request signal from the storage device and outputs the encrypted data. A secure channel sub-system is installed between the at least one virtual server and the hosting server hypervisor. The secure channel sub-system stores a virtual device key in a key storage unit and prevents the virtual server and the hosting server hypervisor from accessing the key
