Significance of Research
As stated in Chapter I, distributed version control systems, particularly Git, have
been rapidly increasing in popularity among software developers in recent years [4]. The
problem exists when these organizations have sensitive data that they want to use with
Git in an unsecure environment. To secure an environment, especially over the internet,
involves high levels of cost. As the name implies, GV2 provides Git with a Virtual Vault
in a remote location, such as on an Amazon Cloud, using their Amazon S3 storage
service. GV2 provides new documented functionality and performance to the research
community. This is new research that has high interest from the Department of Defense
and other organizations who want to run applications using a third party cloud service
provider but also want to maintain confidentiality and integrity of their application data.
In the future, many traditional applications will be modified to support this same type of
security in an unsecure environment in an efficient manner that is transparent to the user.
