ENHANCING THE ADAPTIVITY OF ENCRYPTION FOR STORAGE ELECTRONIC DOCUMENTS
Osama Ahmed Khashan · 2014
the rapid advancement in the domain of information technology has increased the amount of our sensitive documents stored on disk drives and removable storage media. Although many encryption applications and software protection systems are available to provide trusted protection of those documents, they often fail to pay sufficient attention to the increasing challenges of satisfying security implications on storage domain. This, thus, results in greater chances for security breaches and intrusion attacks, in addition to the greatly increased costs to business and end users. Developing a storage protection system based on involving the reuse approach in every phase of a system development can help in analyzing risks and security policies, identifying threats, and determining security requirements. This paper discusses the value of reusability for specifying security requirements of current storage cryptographic systems. Then, we propose a cryptographic model based on a filter driver technology focuses on protecting storage document files. Such proposed model can be able to resolve obstacles to the security requirements identified, and to meet its goal of a high assurance storage protection system.
