Data security is an important term which plays a major role in computers as the cyber-crimes are constantly on the rise in today's world. Unauthorized access to user's personal data is a major problem of the computer users. In some cases, the user will not be able to protect their personal data from being transferred from the user's personal device to another device without their knowledge leading to exposure of personal data. Besides that, due to these problems the user might not be able to identify the person who tries to access into their files or folders which may contains the personal data of the user. Providing extra security measures for such devices is a solution, but it may exhaust system resources in the process of securing all data on the device regardless of its sensitivity. Another solution for the problems, Trusted Computing and Security for Computer Folders is suggested. The first feature is a login system using biometric (voice based password) to access into the system for securing folders and files. Second is the encryption and decryption of selected files using AES algorithm. Lastly, an unauthorized user access image capture. These features helps to solve the problem stated. As a result, there will be a high possibility of protecting personal data of the user from being leaked without the owner's knowledge.
