FILE SECURITY MANAGEMENT

Abstract

Information security is the protection of data against external attacks, malware and unauthorized access by detecting, preventing and responding to these threats. In this project a windows applicationwas developed that allows the user to control the critical data to be encrypted/decrypted using a specified key, that holds a unique identifier which is a serial number of the USB or address of the Device's Bluetooth, By registering necessary information from the user, Any data encrypted data using this application can't be decrypted by another user or application. TDES algorithm is used to encrypt and decryptprocess. This application allows the user to edit his personal information and keys and also recover the keys using a verification E-mail on his registered E-mail. This application is developed using Microsoft visual studio with the help of .NET Framework. And C# as a programming language that provides ManagementObjectSearcher, BluetoothDeviceInfo classes and 32FEET.NET package. The output of this project is an executable windows application that allows the users to secure their files. In the future work it’s proposed that this software is implemented across web platform to support cross-platform operation and provide more availability to the user.
