Secure File Access System Android App

The information age has shrunk the world by ushering in an era of connection. Today, almost anyone can effortlessly and instantaneously share files across the globe. Every other day, we hear about data breaches and user information being compromised. The importance of a secure channel for file-sharing cannot be understated. The Secure File Access app is made up of two parties: the administrator and the user. The admin can use this application to upload and manage files in the application’s database. AES is an encryption algorithm, the file is encrypted using AES, so the file cannot be opened by anyone unless it is decrypted back using the same Key. The file is uploaded to the server then.

The administrator can control who has access to the files. The user can only see or download the file if the admin allows it. Furthermore, the administrator may keep track of which users have accessed the files. The application supports a variety of file types, including jpg, word documents, and PDFs. The admin can use this application to upload and manage files in the application’s database.
