Abstract |
: |
Information is an essential resource today and is the key to growth and success. To ensure that the information’s are protected, user need to ensure that the information held on his organization is secure. The loss of sensitive or critical information may not only affect the competitiveness and cash flow but also damage the reputation - something that may be impossible to restore. In most organization, as in universities, the essential files such as the allowance, excuse, resignation, grades and confidential reports need privacy. The problem is that these files may be seen by unauthorized people, making it difficult to transfer it, add to that the fear of modifications.
Secure Communication System (SCS) is developed to provide security in maintaining the confidentiality of the files exchange online during the Internet (via website) or offline (via external storage device as USB) between faculty members at Faculty of Computing and Information Technology (FCIT) in King Abdul Aziz University (KAU). The purpose of SCS is to ensure that information is secure from unauthorized user to gain access, deploy it or make some changes on it while exchanging confidential files between members. SCS website provides services to members to create their own profile consist of favorite list as a social network. Each member can add another member to his favorite list. Then, he can share the essential files with them using the system, files and massages, history of files (Inbox, Sent, Draft), encryption and decryption processes.
SCS also provides desktop application that can be downloaded in the member’s computer to facilitate the encryption /decryption processes offline. Figure1 describes the online and desktop encryption/ decryption processes. SCS provides the feedback to members when send or approve or pending the friend request.
SCS is developed using Java to build desktop application, WAMP server that contains PHP to build the website and CSS (Cascade Style Sheet) to design the web site, MySQL data base, Open SSL to encrypt/decrypt comment and Zend Framework to encrypt/decrypt file and public key infrastructure (PKI).
SCS provide (1) Authorization: the encrypted files will only be accessible and seen by users who know the key to decrypt; (2) Confidentiality: accessed only by authorized parties; (3) Integrity: unauthorized users can not modify or change because they do not know what is inside the file (encrypted file); (4) User protection: if a user added anyone more than five times and each time the receiver rejected then the user’s name is blocked at user friend list who requested; (5) User notification; (6) Security: encrypt user comment, name of encrypted file, and password in database. |
