Problems solved by technology

When the number of files in a folder is large, even if a single file is small, operations such as storing and backing up the folder will consume a lot of computing time. question
[0003] There are many ways to directly encrypt the data files under the folder, such as compressed file encryption method, such as using tools such as Winzip or Winrar to compress and set a password, which can play a role in keeping the folder confidential. The compressed folder must be decompressed before it can be used, which lacks certain flexibility. At the same time, once the folder is decompressed, the effect of encrypting and saving the file will be lost
Encrypting some folders can also be achieved by using some functions that come with the Windows system, but this method does not have the effect of cross-platform use
We must take into account that in the era of big data, PCs are no longer a single computing unit, and massive data may need to be shared on computers, mobile phones or other portable devices, which also poses certain challenges to the security of data files
There are already some applications of using the database method for file storage and protection. However, some databases such as SQL-Server do not have cross-platform capabilities. At the same time, in the process of using database file storage, the system must additionally install the corresponding database management system. , otherwise the protected files cannot be extracted and used

Embodiment Construction

[0038] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments of the accompanying drawings.

[0039] The present invention provides a folder encryption method, which includes the following steps

[0040] Step 1. The user sets encryption options, including:

[0041] Step 1a), the folder name to be encrypted and encrypted password are specified by the user;

[0042] Step 1b), specify the file type to be encrypted under the folder to be encrypted by the user, and this file type includes text, binary and mixed types;

[0043] Step 1c), the encryption level is determined by the user, and the encryption level includes a general security level and a high security level;

[0044] Step 1d), specify the database name by the user or use "folder name.fiu" as the default database name;

[0045] Step 2. Generate an encrypted database, which specifically includes:

[0046] Step 2a), preset the first salt value db_salt, then encrypt the first sal...

Abstract

The invention relates to a folder encryption method and an encrypted file use method. The folder encryption method comprises the steps that 1, a user sets encryption options; 2, an encryption database is generated; 3, files in a folder are guided in. Compared with the prior art, the folder encryption method and the encrypted file use method have the advantages that the folder encryption method is used for encrypting the folder, and the encrypted folder can be used in a cross-platform mode.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a folder encryption method and a method for using encrypted files. Background technique [0002] Faced with a large amount of data, how to encrypt the folder so that the data file can be stored safely and at the same time can be used conveniently, so as to meet the needs of massive data processing in the data age. When the number of files in a folder is large, even if a single file is small, operations such as storage and backup of the folder require a lot of computing time, which has become a more prominent issue in terms of confidentiality and ease of use. question. [0003] There are many ways to directly encrypt the data files under the folder. The more common ones are the compressed file encryption method, such as using tools such as Winzip or Winrar to compress and set a password, which can keep the folder secret. However, The compressed folder must be decompressed before use, which lacks certain flexibility. At the sam...
