Sahastradhara: Biometric and EToken integrated secure email system

摘要

E-mail Security has been a growing concern over the past few years. The average individual, who uses e-mail naively believes that their e-mail is private and secure. The electronic world is filled with snoopers who can access all types of data over the network. As the world goes digital, with more and more raw information about individuals available electronically, the need for security increases. Ubiquity and speed of email have made it increasingly effective. So providing reliance over this medium has become an inevitable requirement. The emails of today are secured by encrypting the content on an external medium and sending this as an attachment over the mail. The current trend increases the size of the mail and makes it inconvenient for the user. There are other systems that provide specific security and are strongly tied to the mail servers and browsers.
