Main call for Cloud computing is that users only utilize what they required and only pay for whatever they are using. Mobile Cloud Computing refers to an infrastructure where data processing and storage can happen away from mobile device. Research estimates that mobile subscribers worldwide will reach 15 billion by the end of 2014 and 18 billion by at the ending of 2016. Due to increasing use of mobile devices the requirement of cloud computing in mobile devices arise, which evolves Mobile Cloud Computing. Mobile devices require large storage capacity and maximum CPU speed. As we are storing data on cloud there is an issue of data security. As there is risk associated with data storage many IT professionals are not showing their interest towards Mobile Cloud Computing. To ensure the users' data correctness in the cloud, here we are proposing an effective mechanism with salient feature of data integrity and confidentiality. This paper proposed a solution which uses the DES algorithm and mechanism of hash function along with various cryptography tools to provide better security to the data stored on the cloud. This model can not only solve the problem of storage of massive data, but also make sure that it will give data access control mechanisms and ensure sharing data files with confidentiality and integrity.
