- 1. Q.1 Identifywhat Taming Sari EncryptionSoftwaredoes. Youmay listdown all its features. Taming Sari software is used to protect the confidentiality of your files and data. It is based on 2 factor authentication of cryptographic algorithm. It has many features but some of the key factors of taming Sari encryption Software are: Strong encryption by using MySEAL approved algorithms Safe environment of file sharing Encrypted conversation It monitors files too Quick encryption and decryption process It runs on both Mac and on windows OS 2 Factor authentication Not easy password exchange Q.2 The software enables you to share the encryptedfile with other people, by just specifying the recipient’s email address during the encryptionprocedure. It uses a concept called Digital Envelope. The sender does not have to inform the recipient of the file, what is the encryptionkey that he/she used to encrypt the file. Investigate, how is this possible. Explain the possible steps. It is considered to be the strength of Taming Sari Encryption Software. Key management in Taming Sari is done in the advanced cryptographic algorithms. The encryption keys of Taming Sari users are never stored on the Taming Sari server. They're created with 256- bit length and safeguarded at the user's device using Taming Sari's superior risk management. Furthermore, if a user desires to share a secured file with another person, there is no need for the user to provide the secret key used during the encryption procedure to the recipient. Taming Sari's smart and secure Key Management handles it.
- 2. True Random numbers 256 bits buffer of random bits generated. Each time PGP expects a keystroke from the user and it records.
- 3. Q.3 Basedon your finding above, do you think Taming Sari implements a secure encryption protocol? Justify your answer Yes, based on my above findings I have come to the point that Taming sari implements a secure encryption protocol. It is very beneficial to use for the data security. Its randomly generation of 256 bits key system make it mor secure and very much difficult to breach. And all of the above it is very easy to use. Q.4 Based on your usage of Taming Sari, do you find out any weakness of the system? If yes, please describe the weakness. Otherwise, identify its strength. I did not find any weakness by the usage of Taming Sari but I think the trail version of the software would have to add more users and some more fields should have to be explored before shifting to the subscribed version of Taming Sari Encryption Software. Otherwise I found it very strong and encrypted software. Easy to select and protect files or type your confidential conversation test later share your protected files or confidential conversation with authorizes parties. There is also a tracking system available to monitor data it help in tracking of any data leakage. Key system is very much strong and it is 2 step verification based. Q.5 Identify, what are the possible cryptographic algorithmsusedinTaming Sari. State its functionality too Standard symmetric encryption algorithms include RC4, AES, DES, 3DES, and QUAD. Standard asymmetric encryption algorithms include RSA, Diffie-Hellman, ECC, El Gamal, and DSA. Both data in transit and data at rest can be kept confidential and secure using cryptography. It can also guard against repudiation by authenticating senders and recipients. Many endpoints, often multiple clients, and one or more back-end servers are common in software systems. Q.6 The software implements 2 Factor Authentication. Describe what factor it implements, and does it improve the security of Taming Sari? Explain your answer. Two-factor authentication (2FA) is a security solution that requires two different forms of identity to gain access to something. A password is the first factor, and the second is usually a text message with a code sent to your smartphone, or biometrics utilizing your fingerprint, face, or retina. Q.7Statewhetherdoyou likeusingTaming SariEncryptionSoftware,andreasons to your answer.
- 4. Yes, I like using Taming Sari encryption software the reason is its too much secure and its key system is tremendously impressive. It gives Protection of valuable information Security for user. It controls access, protects data, protects the system from viruses and network/Internet breaches, and protects against other system-level security threats. Q.8 Basedon your knowledgethat youhave gainedfrom Cryptographyand other security classes;howdo you want to improve Taming Sari Encryption Software? Confidentiality − Encryption technique can guard the information and communication from unauthorized revelation and access of information. Authentication − The cryptographic techniques such as MAC and digital signatures can protect information against spoofing and forgeries. Hashing algorithms and message digests are used in cryptography to maintain data integrity. The receiver is ensured that the data received has not been tampered with during transmission by giving codes and digital keys to confirm that what is received is legitimate and from the intended sender. So that is why I think Taming Sari is best in its own encryption software competition it.
