A File Protection System (FPS) is a professional file organizer that manages and protects digital data located on local, server, or external media.
Protection includes proven solutions for encrypting files containing technological, construction, multimedia, or other types of information stored in digital form.
• Building automated solutions for protecting the copyright and related rights of developers and designers;
• Protecting multimedia digital content;
• Protecting technological and construction documentation stored in digital form;
• Creating working projects, including a set of files;
• Creating secure electronic workbooks containing information about working projects;
• Creating specialized electronic briefcases for the secure transfer of critical, digital information;
• Creating file packages and forming working meta scenarios;
• Protecting files and digital documents stored on remote servers;
• Secure exchange of electronic messages, etc.
The main purpose of the FPS is to protect digital information from unauthorized access, but the application is very effective when it is necessary to protect multimedia content, open-source solutions, design and technological documentation, financial information, and personal data.
In practice, in addition to protection, the application opens up new opportunities for conducting commercial operations with digital products, which are the subject of consideration in the periodically organized online courses on the topic. more
As the main advantages of using the application, we could point out:
• Copyright protection - Encryption of files used in the web projects prevents the processes of unauthorized access to unique algorithms, business logic, or
innovative solutions.
• Protection from copying and reverse engineering - Encryption of files used for the web projects makes it difficult to unauthorized copying of code, logical analysis, and the creation of similar solutions by other developers. This is especially important for commercial products, libraries, mobile applications, and games.
• Preventing the implementation of malicious code - Unlike obfuscation, encryption does not allow unauthorized implementation of malicious scripts. The reason for this is that any attempt to implement code in encrypted files would lead to the impossibility of their subsequent decryption. In practice, this is another effective mechanism for improving the security of open-source systems.
• Protecting sensitive data - Most open-source projects contain sensitive data. Such data are API keys, checksums, etc., which, despite the current requirements, are implemented in the code or written in text or binary files used in the project. Encryption allows a higher level of protection for such solutions.
• Reducing the risks of unauthorized access - Encrypting web projects makes it very difficult to perform unauthorized code analysis to detect elements that allow bypassing license restrictions or other security mechanisms. Reliable symmetric encryption of web projects using session cryptographic mechanisms is an extremely effective mechanism against attacks based on the use of eval() functions of JavaScript or Ajax. The reason for this is that in them, the malicious code is stored in a separate file. In projects, all files are strictly controlled, which includes not only their length, creation date, and last modification, but also a wide range of hash functions and checksums. Also, the use of file lifecycle management systems in a project could be considered a highly secure alternative to standard file archives. However, unlike archives, here we have not only compression and protection of the archive as such, but also protection of individual elements and advanced real-time control capabilities. Another interesting possibility is the use of this type of system as a means of counteracting web scraping.
FIELD OF APPLICATION
Protecting large arrays of files located on different media is a complex and difficult process to implement.
Storing, editing, transferring, and destroying files is a process that both users and security professionals often overlook. Statistics show that threats of unsanctioned access by unauthorized persons contribute to this problem.
With the help of FPS, it is possible to neutralize all these problems by means of a highly effective professional cryptosystem using secure file packages and electronic workbooks.
The use of file packages automates protection processes, increases service efficiency, and significantly improves the security of corporate solutions.
FPS uses some of the most effective standard digital data encryption algorithms used by government organizations and corporate structures, as well as hybrid solutions that are
less familiar. This makes the application an indispensable tool for building cybersecurity systems that meet the requirements of ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27002.
The application's hybrid functions use proven algorithms described in NIST SP 800-88 and NIST SP 800-90A, which include Hash DRBG (Hash Function Based), HMAC DRBG (HMAC Based), and CTR DRBG (based on block ciphers in counter mode), as well as some specific solutions used in BS 1443 technology.
