Secure Personal Data Help FileAbout Secure Personal DataIntroductionSecure Personal Data is an efficient and simple software to help you secure your personal data.In today's scenario more and more people are using computers and also the internet usage has become a necessity of life. Computers have become our primary data storage device where we keep most of the data needed by us. Now the question arises how secure is the data we keep on our computers? The security of data depends on two factors:1. People who access our computers physically2. People (or mostly software) which access our computers through Network / Internet.It is easy to secure the data from the people who physically access our computers. Most of them are our colleagues or family members. What we should be really worried about are those people / software which access our computer through Network. Today Internet is full of Hackers, Spywares, Trojans and other software which keep on attempting to steal your data. Most of the data stolen by them are harmless in nature like our browsing patterns , email address etc. But this does not guarantee that they would not go to the extent to steal our personal data like passwords, credit card numbers , address etc. It is always wise to take precaution rather regretting later. This is where our software comes in the scene. With Secure Personal Data you will secure your data with 128 bit Blowfish encryption (One of the best in the market) . Now we will explain why our software is unique compared to other available software. Most of the software works on password checking encryption. Ex: You set a password in the software and save a file. The next time when you open the file the software asks you the password and checks it with the earlier password you set and if the password match then it grant you access. Now there are serious flaw in this kind of security:The password (may be also encrypted) is stored by the software and is always available for stealing and to be cracked. Anyone who has a little knowledge of cracking can steal the password and run it through a brute force cracking software. The moment software checks the password you have entered, with the one it has stored, it is most vulnerable for an attack. There are many software which can read through computer memory. All a person has to do is launch such a software and wait till the encryption software checks the password. At this point the person can easily see that what he should enter to gain the access.What we have explained above is not a very uncommon scenario. People are using this technique for long time and more and more people are getting into it.We studied these flaws and came up with an idea of a software which will be totally secure from the flaws above. In our software we have removed the functionality of storing the password and checking it with what you enter next time. Our software simply takes whatever you provide it, which means that if the password is correct then you will get your original data else you will see unreadable (garbage) data. Now even if someone steals your files, our software or gain full access to your computer still he would not able to read the files as there is no password stored or checked to be cracked.This software has although a limitation. If you forget the password or enter a wrong password you will not be able to get access to the data. If such a case arise that you enter a password and see unreadable (garbage) data then please close the file without saving and open it again with the correct password. |
