The emergence of cloud computing brings the infinite imagination space, both in individual and organizations, due to its unprecedented advantages in the IT history: on-demand self-service, ubiquitous network access, location independent resource pooling, rapid resource elasticity, usage-based pricing and transference of risk. Many of the individuals or organizations ease the pressure on their local data storage, and mitigate the maintenance overhead of local data storage by using outsource data to cloud. However, the data outsourcing is not absolutely safe in the cloud. In order to enhance the users’ confidence of the integrity of their outsource data in the cloud. To promote the rapid deployment of cloud data storage service and regain security assurances with outsourced data dependability, many scholars tend to design the Remote Data Auditing (RDA) technique as a new concept to enable public auditability for the outsourced data in the cloud. The RDA is a useful technique to ensure the correctness of the data outsourced to cloud servers. This paper presents a comprehensive survey on techniques of remote data auditing in cloud server. Recently, more and more remote auditing approaches are categorized into the three different classes, that is, replication-based, erasure coding-based, and network coding-based to present a taxonomy. This paper also aims to the explore major issues.
