SECRY - Secure file storage on cloud using hybrid cryptographyALIN BABU
Final project presentation of Final year B.tech CSE Project APJ Abdul Kalam Technological University.
About the project
Cloud computing has now become a major trend, it is a new data hosting technology that is very popular in recent years. In this project, we are developing an web application that can securely store the files to a cloud server. We proposes a system that uses hybrid cryptography technique to securely store the data in cloud. The hybrid approach when deployed in cloud environment makes the remote server more secure and thus, helps the users to fetch more trust of their data in the cloud. For data security and privacy protection issues, the fundamental challenge of separation of sensitive data and access control is fulfilled. Cryptography technique translates original data into unreadable format. This technique uses keys for translate data into unreadable form. So only authorized person can access data from cloud server.
We provide a cloud storage that uses multiple crypotraphic technique which is known by hybrid cryptography. The product provides confidentiality by using security for both upload and download. The data will be secured since we use multi level security techniques and multiple servers for storage.

1.Nice post on the role of the cryptographic algorithm.
One good thing you need to be aware is the fact that these algorithms can be utilized in a way to strengthen organizations existing plan by providing an additional layer of prevention especially as it relates to network security, but as Olzak (2012) notes, before looking at when and what to encrypt, it is important to understand where encryption fits in the overall security controls architecture. In your own view, do you think that encryption adds additional overhead and cost to the data process?
2.(CH)The Role that most cryptographic algorithms play is pretty essential to big organizations
and most computer users. When using the internet on a daily basis its main objective is to keep your system secure and keep information private from other users. There are many Cryptographic algorithms, that have specific purposes on how they are implemented. One of the most common algorithms is RSA ( Rivest-Shamir-Adleman) mostly common known as asymmetric cryptography. The way it works is it uses one private key and one public key (which is everyone is able to Access). While both keys are able to encrypt the message, the way to decrypt it is by using the opposite key you used from the beginning. This particular algorithm can be used to strengthen and organization's existing plan by adding confidentiality and authenticity to secure a stable connection over the network the organization uses at hand. One of the other main encryptions used by Organizations is symmetric algorithms which converts plaintext data into indecipherable text using only one single key. These Type of algorithms provide a quick and simple solution, although it may be quick but if a third party accesses the key it easily decrypts the message, almost making the algorithm one the most accessible for third parties to obtain.
3.
Cryptographic algorithms are sequences of processes, or rules
, used to encipher and decipher messages in a cryptographic system
(What are Cryptographic Algorithms?, 2017).
These algorithms protect data of an organization.
Many algorithms use encryption and decryption to help secure communications.
Encryption converts plain-text into cipher-text and decryption converts cipher-text into plain-text.
There are various cryptographic algorithms and they mostly fit into the symmetric or asymmetric category.
These algorithms have been used for many years to strengthen an organization.
For an organization, these algorithms protect data so that unwanted people can’t access it.
In other words, it provides authentication.
Making sure only access is granted by those authorized and limiting the amount of people that can access the data.
In addition, cryptographic algorithms make sure a company prote.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

3. If you think that Hashing, Encryption, and Encoding
are the same thing, you are wrong! However, you’re
not alone.
There is an awful lot of confusion surrounding these
three terms. As similar, as they may sound, they are
all totally different things.
Before getting down to business though, let’s
understand a few things first.
4. Internet Security
From a security point of view what are
the most important things when sending
data/message on the internet?
5. 1.
You want to let the other person know
that the message has been sent from
you – not from anyone else.
6. 2.
You want the message to be in the
exact same format – without any
alteration or modification.
7. 3.
You want your message to be
protected from the reach of ill-intended
people – hackers, fraudsters & other
types of cyber criminals.
8. These three functions can be designated as:
Identity
Verification
ConfidentialityIntegrity
9. “
So, how exactly is this done?
Hashing and Encryption are
the answers. Now you must
be thinking ‘Doesn’t that
make them the same thing?’
The answer is NO.
11. Hashing - ###
▪ Let’s try to imagine life without hashing. Suppose, it’s
someone’s birthday and you decide to send a ‘Happy Birthday’
message.
▪ Your geeky (and funny!) friend decides to have a bit of fun at
your expense so he intercepts it and turns your ‘Happy
Birthday’ message into a ‘Rest in Peace’ message (imagine the
consequences!).
▪ This could happen and you wouldn’t even know it (until you are
at the receiving end of certain reactions!).
12. ▪ Jokes aside, Hashing
protects the integrity of your
data. It protects your data
against potential alteration
so that your data isn’t
changed one bit.
▪ Basically, a hash is a number
that is generated from the
text through a hash
algorithm. This number is
smaller than the original
text.
13. ▪ The algorithm is designed in such a way that no two hashes
are the same for two different texts. And it is impossible
(almost!) to go back from the hash value to the original text.
▪ It’s kind of like a cow moving on stairs – it can move upstairs
but not down!! Anyway, looping back to our “happy birthday”
message. Had you hashed your message, the intended
recipient of your message would unhash the message and
see a different value than what should come back.
▪ At that point, they’ll know the message has been tampered
with.
14. ▪ That’s one of the most indispensable properties of
Hashing—its uniqueness. There cannot be the same hash
value for different text.
▪ Even the tiniest bit of change/modification will alter the hash
value completely. This is called the Avalanche Effect.
▪ Let’s understand this with an example. In the below example,
we have applied the SHA-1 algorithm. Let’s see how it goes.
15. Text: Everybody loves donuts
SHA-1 Hash value of the text above: daebbfdea9a516477d489f32c982a1ba1855bcd
Let’s not get involved in the donut debate (is there a debate?) and focus on hashing for
the time being. Now if we make a tiny bit of change in the sentence above, the hash
value will change entirely. Let’s see how it goes.
New text: Everybody loves donut.
SHA-1 Hash value of the new text: 8f2bd584a1854d37f9e98f9ec4da6d757940f388
See how the hash value changed entirely when we removed the ‘s’ from Donuts?
That’s what hashing does for you.
17. Use of Hashing
Hashing is an effective
method to compare
and avoid duplication
in databases.
Hashing is used in
Digital signatures and
SSL certificates.
Hashing can be used
to find a specific piece
of data in big
databases.
Hashing is widely used
in computer graphics.
19. Encryption
It’s almost impossible to imagine the internet without
Encryption.
Encryption is what keeps the artificial world of the internet
secured. Encryption keeps data secured and confidential.
Fundamentally, it is the process of transforming your
confidential data into an unreadable format so that no hacker
or attacker can manipulate or steal it.
Thereby, serving the purpose of confidentiality.
21. The encryption of data is executed through cryptographic keys. The
information is encrypted before it’s sent and decrypted by the
receiver. Therefore, the data is safe when it is “in the air.”
Based on the nature of the keys, encryption can be classified into
two main categories – symmetric encryption, asymmetric
encryption.
22. Symmetric Encryption
In symmetric encryption, the
data is encrypted and
decrypted using a single
cryptographic key. It means
that the key used for
encryption is used for
decryption as well.
Encryption Types
Asymmetric Encryption
Asymmetric encryption is a
relatively new technique
compared to its counterpart. It
involves the use of two
different keys, one for
encryption and one for
decryption purposes. One key is
known as a ‘Public Key’ and the
other is regarded as a ‘Private
Key.’
25. The Public Key is virtually everywhere. Even you possess it without even
knowing it. One is stored in your web browser every time you visit an HTTPS-
enabled website.
When you send any data to an encrypted site, it is encrypted using the Public
Key. The Private Key, on the other hand, is only with the receiver and must be
kept discreet. Private Key is used to decrypt the encrypted data. The use of
two distinct keys makes the encryption process more secure and a tad slower.
Both these techniques are used in the SSL/TLS certificates. The Asymmetric
Encryption is first applied for the SSL handshake process — server validation
if you call it. Once the connection is in place between the server and the client,
Symmetric Encryption takes care of the data encryption.
27. Encoding
Unlike Encryption and Hashing, Encoding is not used for
security purpose.
Fundamentally, it is just a technique to transform data into
other formats so that it can be consumed by numerous
systems.
There is no use of keys in encoding. The algorithm that is used
to encode the data is used to decode it as well.
ASCII and UNICODE are examples of such algorithms.
28. Let’s flashback a bit
Hashing
A string of numbers
generated to confirm
the integrity of data
through hashing
algorithms.
Encryption
A technique used to
maintain the
confidentiality of data
by converting the data
into an undecipherable
format.
Encoding
A conversion of data
from one format to
another format.
