with the development of cloud computing, cloud security issues have recently gained traction in the research community. Although much of the efforts are focused on securing the operation system and virtual machine, or securing data storage inside a cloud system, this paper takes an alternative perspective to cloud security-the security of data migration between different clouds. First, we describe some threats when we are doing data migration. Second, we propose a security mechanism to deal with the security issues on data migration from one cloud to another. Third, we design a prototype to give the mechanism a brief implementation based on HDFS(Hadoop Distributed File System) and we do a series of tests to evaluate our prototype. Here, the solutions to securing data migration between clouds mainly involve in SSL negotiation, migration ticket design and block encryption in distributed file system and cluster parallel computing.
