Due to tremendous use of smartphones the concern of cloud computing in mobile devices emerges, which is known as Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC). It involves the usage of mobile devices and cloud computing to perform resource intensive tasks using the internet with minimum impact on cellular resources. Nowadays, people are relying on mobile devices due to their small size and user friendly interface but due to its limited storage capacity, people can no more rely on internal RAM. Therefore, this promotes a drastic need for technology to make it possible for anyone to access their data anywhere anytime. As a result, Mobile Cloud Computing facilitates mobile users with its enticing technology by providing its on-demand and scalable services. But privacy and security are the main concern for a mobile user in the modern era. Thus, issues regarding security can be divided into cloud security and mobile network user’s security, respectively. However, the primary focus of this study is to analyze how to secure the user's data in a mobile cloud. Leading to objectives, the current study presents a comprehensive analysis of existing techniques that can be considered for securing data in MCC efficiently. Moreover, this work will contribute a state-of-the-art roadmap to research and development communities for the right selection of proposed approach.
