As Cyber Secuirty is our theme we tried to build a website that shares the files between two people. Our project has alot good features like encryption, random keys, files expiration etc.
The problem SendAS solves
Our project mainly sorts the secuirty issues in the communication between two individuals. With some of the exsisting technology, there is no guarenttee that the shared files can be accessed by the hackers but project we build is our anonymous people who want to share their files securly and privately. Some key features are :
- Users can use the website anonymously.
- Files are encrypted using AES-128 CBC algorithm before getting stored in the server.
- Storage is maintained by deleting files after a certain amount of time.
- Random key is generated for each file along with download link which can be used to download the file from anywhere.
- Records of the files are destroyed immediately after it is downloaded.
- Website is secure against bots.
We hosted our projects using free hosting services and you can find the link below. The link for the code that we hosted on github is also provided.
Challenges we ran into
Yes, we gone through many hurdles like concepts are new to us. And there are some problems also related to the key generation and we sorted it out. We also raned into some small problems like displaying the keys and links on the website and we sorted it out using bootstrap alert boxes. The main problems was the bug that the downloaded file contains html code the server and that also we overcame with some solutions. Another thing was the responsiveness that the page holds with various devices like laptops, mobiles etc. Eventhough our webiste contains a single page we tried to make as responsive as possible. Now, you can use in our phones and tablets also without any UI/UX problems.
