We Just Made Locking your information security data as EASY as ( CLICK - CLICK )

As you know, when you right-click on an item in Windows Explorer, the shell context menu will display. You can implement the shell context menu in your own applications with a minimum amount of effort for maximum information security. This has implications beyond just displaying the context menu for a file.

Through the shell context menu you can:

EZlock This

This will allow you to easily open a file of your choosing anywhere on your computer. Right click and open the (Shell Context Menu) over that document. Then just simply Click ( EZLock This )for instant file security

That's it!

The document will move to the EZLock folder.

Information Security

Protecting your personal and business information from unauthorized access ( Information Security ).

In todays world with our computer use and access there is enormous amounts of information traveling at the speed of light. How would you feel if your banking information was improperly released by an individual of business? UPSET - MAD - and rightly so. Many data files are unprotected using no security measures at all. Our most personal information is just sitting in unprotected files on our computers. All of us need to protect our personal information. Such as personal banking, personal information, propritary business data, medical records, legal records, ect; all of that information and more is stored on our computers.

Key Concepts

For over twenty years information security has held that confidentiality, integrity and availability (known as the CIA Triad) are the core principles of information security.

Confidentiality

Confidentiality is the action of preventing disclosure of information to unauthorized individuals or systems. Breaches of confidentiality take many forms. Permitting someone to look over your shoulder at your computer screen while you have confidential data displayed on it could be a breach of confidentiality. If a laptop computer containing sensitive information about a company's employees is stolen or sold, it could result in a breach of confidentiality. Giving out confidential information over the telephone is a breach of confidentiality if the caller is not authorized to have the information. Confidentiality is necessary (but not sufficient) for maintaining the privacy of the people whose personal information a system holds.

Integrity

In information security, integrity means that data cannot be modified without authorization.

Availability

For any information security to serve its purpose, the information must be available when it is needed. This means that the computing systems used to store and process the information, the security controls used to protect it, and the communication channels used to access it must be functioning correctly
In 2002, Donn Parker proposed an alternative model for the classic CIA triad. The elements are confidentiality, possession, integrity, authenticity, availability, and utility.

Risk

It is the likelihood that something bad will happen that causes harm to an informational asset (or the loss of the asset). A vulnerability is a weakness that could be used to endanger or cause harm to an informational asset. A threat is anything (man made or act of nature) that has the potential to cause harm. The likelihood that a threat will use a vulnerability to cause harm creates a risk. When a threat does use a vulnerability to inflict harm, it has an impact. In the context of information security, the impact is a loss of availability, integrity, and confidentiality, and possibly other losses (lost income, loss of life, loss of real property). It should be pointed out that it is not possible to identify all risks, nor is it possible to eliminate all risk. The remaining risk is called residual risk.

Logical

Logical controls (also called technical controls) use software and data to monitor and control access to information and computing systems. For example: passwords, network and host based firewalls, network intrusion detection systems, access control lists, and data encryption are logical controls. An important logical control that is frequently overlooked is the principle of least privilege. The principle of least privilege requires that an individual, program or system process is not granted any more access privileges than are necessary to perform the task.
Violations of this principle can also occur when an individual collects additional access privileges over time. This happens when employees' job duties change, or they are promoted to a new position, or they transfer to another department. The access privileges required by their new duties are frequently added onto their already existing access privileges which may no longer be necessary or appropriate.

Access control

Access to protected information must be restricted to people who are authorized to access the information. The computer programs, and in many cases the computers that process the information security, must also be authorized. This requires that mechanisms be in place to control the access to protected information. The sophistication of the access control mechanisms should be in parity with the value of the information being protected - the more sensitive or valuable the information the stronger the control mechanisms need to be. The foundation on which access control mechanisms are built start with identification and authentication.

Cryptography (Encryption)

Information security uses cryptography to transform usable information into a form that renders it unusable by anyone other than an authorized user; this process is called encryption. Information that has been encrypted (rendered unusable) can be transformed back into its original usable form by an authorized user, who possesses the cryptographic key, through the process of decryption. Cryptography is used in information security to protect information from unauthorized or accidental discloser while the information is in transit (either electronically or physically) and while information is in storage.

Process

The terms reasonable and prudent person, due care and due diligence have been used in the fields of Finance, Securities, and Law for many years. In recent years these terms have found their way into the fields of computing and information security. U.S.A. Federal Sentencing Guidelines now make it possible to hold corporate officers liable for failing to exercise due care and due diligence in the management of their information systems.

WE have made EZLock so easy and fast that you may not think anything was done when you transfered a file into EZLOCK. However what you don't see is, a very complicated computing process, this document is encrypted by "BLOWFISH" and secured in EZLOCK folder at the same time the original file remove completely and destroyed. You cannot find a trace of that document any where on the computer using a 10-cycle erase formula up to U.S Government standards and information security. This all happens in seconds with just a right click (EZLOCK THIS)

Your Files, Pictures and Sound Bites are locked and secure. Only you can open and view your EZLOCK files.
