Prototype of Computing Device That Aims to Secure User Data on a Compromised OS

Our objective is to build an environment which provides a secured workspace for handling data, such as copying and editing important user files, for secure transactions over the internet and much more. It could be viewed as a Secured Machine equipped with locked-down Operating System with services and applications that support the user to access data securely. This environment will also decide which applications should run and which ones should not. It will also act as a logger of User Actions, in order to record and prevent an unauthorized action. Hence, an unauthorized person will not be able to access your personal information, either through the machine or by snooping on the internet, and will maintain integrity. In particular, we propose a mechanism which will focus on who is having access to data and how, as well as it will secure end-to-end data sharing and will have thinnest chances of intrusion.
