This document proposes a double stage encryption algorithm to securely store multimedia content like images, audio, and video in the cloud. In the first stage, multimedia content is encrypted into ciphertext using AES symmetric encryption. The ciphertext is then encrypted again in the cloud using a randomly generated symmetric key for added security. This makes it difficult for attackers to extract the encryption key and recover the original multimedia content even if they obtain the ciphertext. The algorithm aims to provide security against side channel attacks in cloud computing through its use of random key generation and double encryption. It is described as having low complexity and wide applicability for safeguarding multimedia content in the cloud.
