Abstract

E-documents are carriers of sensitive data, and their security in the open network environment has always been a common problem with the field of data security. Based on the use of encryption schemes to construct secure access control, this paper proposes a fusion data security protection scheme. This scheme realizes the safe storage of data and keys by designing a hybrid symmetric encryption algorithm, a data security deletion algorithm, and a key separation storage method. The scheme also uses file filter driver technology to design a user operation state monitoring method to realize real-time monitoring of user access behavior. In addition, this paper designs and implements a prototype system. Through the verification and analysis of its usability and security, it is proved that the solution can meet the data security protection requirements of sensitive E-documents in the open network environment.
