Document/ Certificate Protection System
Abstract:
The Minor project titled “Document/ Certificate Protection System" is a system which is used to secure the government issued documents or certificate .Almost all Indian government issued documents are in physical form across the country. This means every time a resident needs to share the document with an agency to avail any service, an attested photocopy either in physical form or on scanned form is shared.
Use of document hard copies creates huge overhead in terms of manual verification, paper storage, manual audits, etc. incurring high cost and inconvenience. This creates problem for various agencies to verify the authenticity of these documents, thus, creating loopholes for usage of fake documents/certificates. These documents can be misused by anyone as strong identity is not attached with the document. This system is digital locker which provides digital empowerment for residents. It minimize the use of physical documents. System helps authenticity of the e-documents and eliminates usage of fake documents. This system provides more security to documents. It reduces administrative overhead of Govt. departments and agencies and make it easy for the residents to receive services. Documents can be accessed by multiple users at anytime and anywhere.
ARCHITECTURE / FRAMEWORK
METHODOGY / ALGORITHM
RIJNDAEL DES CIPHER ALGORITHM
The U.S. National Bureau of Standards created a complicated encryption standard called DES
(Data Encryption Standard) which offered unlimited ways to encrypt data. This encryption standard was replaced by Rijndael encryption. The name Rijndael is composed of the names John Daemon and Vincent Rijmen, two Belgian cryptology experts and authors of this method. Rijndael uses a key for encryption that has a size of 128, 192 or 256 bits, which provides high protection against brute force attacks. In addition, this encryption method also works three times faster in software than DES. This method can be used for securely exchanging keys as well as transferring data with a size of 128 or 256 bits.
MODULES SPECIFICATION
There are four modules used in this system. They are following:-
• Upload module.
• Extract module.
• Encryption module
• Decryption module

--SUMMARY--
This will reduce the paper-work and workload of the verification team as all the documents will be available at a single place and that too secured.DigiLocker, national Digital Locker System launched by Govt. of India which provides 1GB of free space in the locker to securely store resident documents, is somewhat similar to this idea of project. But it has certain drawbacks like, citizen cannot login unless he has Aadhar card. Other issue is that DigiLocker does not allow storing all the documents; it has options only for certain type of documents. Also citizens themselves upload the documents which may or may not be genuine. But our project not only allows storing the documents online, but also we guarantee their authenticity and security. The purpose of this project is just to secure the government issued documents or certificates.
