This document proposes a novel approach to implementing data deduplication on the cloud using message locked encryption. It aims to overcome limitations of existing deduplication techniques like convergent encryption by using erasure code technology, encryption algorithms like DES and MD5 hashing, and tokenization to securely store and protect client data on the cloud. The proposed system gives clients proof of ownership of their data by allowing them to choose who can access their files and see any changes made over time. The system architecture involves a client uploading encrypted data to the cloud, and recipients selected by the client being able to access and retrieve encrypted pieces of the data.
