Inspiration
Most of the available data collection platforms run over web and internet - cloud based technologies. It becomes difficult to store and transfer the data in places with no internet connectivity. There’s a strong need of a tool that helps to capture data with proper data correction and security over the network. Often times data send between two counterparts over network can be hacked easily hence there’s a strong need of encryption mechanism required. Tracing correct users for data collection along with its location becomes very important while dealing with finance data.
What it does
Our proposed solution includes a smart mobile application - VaultGuard - which will be the one stop shop for handling Public Financial Management without any/stable internet connection. Functionalities :
- Secure login/signup of Spending Units/Users
- Collecting and encrypting data to be sent.
- Sending the encrypted data to desire mobile number via Text.
- Decrypting the data on receivers VaultGuard application.
- Syncing the data received to mobile database and send confirmatory alerts
How we built it
Mobile Application Enabling Local Database Libraries for multilayer security, user friendly UI, validation, admin dashboard Encryption and Transfer of data
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Secured Login Mechanism - 4 digit secured password, Timeout of 30 seconds of inactivity, Location and Timestamp validator Multi-format and Multilingual - Captures text, images, numbers, location coordinates and with multiple language format Bi-directional synchronization - Automatically sync of data using network package along with encryption mechanism Secured Encryption Mechanism - Encryption and decryption key our package message before transmission
Advantages of VaultGuard
VaultGuard allows mobile data collection apps as integral to secure, reliable and scalable research. It’s efficient in offline settings and open doors to data collections & new research possibilities. It begins with the freedom and adaptability of designing research-specific forms that work even in the most challenging environments. It continues with secure and collaborative data entry, and ends with faster data analysis and visualisation. Data in research is always bound by ethical and technical dilemmas. Data is be reusable, findable, accessible, and interoperable
