v1.2 Security System. Create encryption and decryption of data files, i.e. time table

[aspiringdevslog]

Implementation Notes:

Encryption

• encryption of time table data should probably be done as soon as the user entered the time table data. probably done when the data are being saved.
• I would need to research some .txt / .csv encryption methods
• I envision the implementation as some form of function that will be called when the user enter the time table data (command to enter data > function call to the data input command > prior to saving, call my function to encrypt the data)
• this could be extended to encrypt other data in the system as well

Decryption

• this will be done when the user enter command to retrieve information
• some form of function that ties into the command. (command to retrieve data > function call to the data retrieve command > prior to displaying the data, call my function to decrypt the data)

v1.2.1 Encryption

• encrypting text file
• integrated to one "add" command, test it with the username and password first

v1.2.2 Decryption

• decrypting text file
• integrating to one "retrieve" command, test it with login command, decrypting the password

Offhand terms that comes into mind

• SSH, Hashing, Salting. need to do a more in-depth reading into this subject
