FINGER PRINT AUTENTICATED FLASH STORAGE DEVICE
Main Article Content
Abstract
We often store important and confidential files in pen drives or flash storage drives for transferring/sharing data. Although convenient, there remains a concern regarding misplacing these storage devices that can go intowrong hands and create problems, so we need special storage devices, which we can securely save and shareour files.There is several software available in the market that allow us to encrypt and lock our files but they require acertain ‘know-how’ for installation in the laptops and PCs, which will be used with the flash drive. Alsoavailable are some flash devices that work on fingerprint or password authentication. However, these requireinstallation of special drivers in a PC and only support Windows 10 or 8 but not Linux.Therefore, we have decided to make a smart flash storage device that is based on fingerprint authentication andworks without installing any software or drivers in a PC. Using Bluetooth serial terminals, a user’s fingerprintor password authentication is done via an app on a phone. This concept project can be used for developing areliable smart flash storage solution.
