Blockchain in cloud computing and security challenges

Blockchain has drawn attention to itself because of its security. Specifically, security is shared through the authentication of peers who share virtual cash, encryption and generation of hash value. According to the global financial industry, the market for security-based blockchain technology is on a growing trend. Cloud computing is used for its high performance and availability in all IT environments. In this paper, we discuss the blockchain technology and its hot research process. Additionally, we examine how to accord the security of the blockchain to cloud computing and the details of its security solutions. We investigate the blockchain security and challenges and attacks like Eclipse and low-level-based attacks by fake wallet applications. We will investigate the attack results on the bitcoin and Ethereum.
