This paper proposes a novel architecture that offers features for a truly interactive yet private document archival cloud. The proposed secure document archival system has been specifically designed for the elimination of paper based systems in organization. The architecture attempts to shift paper based systems to an electronic archival system where the documents are secure and the system is supportive to user demands and features. Therefore besides document archival the proposed architecture also offers the authentication and encryption for secure keeping of data on the cloud. We propose a novel combination of SSL coupled with ICMetrics for the document archival system, which will prove to be a very valuable tool for encrypting and authenticating in the cloud world.

“…It also presents a faulttolerant AES based on parity-based fault detection scheme and Hamming codes to mitigate SEUs or single bit faults in AES on-board implementations. In [20] a proposal is presented to generate cryptographic keys from features associated directly with the actual satellite. However, such a technique is only valid if we assume that an attacker never gains control over the satellite.…”

The ICmetrics technology is based on extracting features from digital devices' operation that may be integrated together to generate unique identifiers for each of the devices or create unique profiles that describe the devices' actual behaviour. Any changes in these identifiers (profiles) during consequent devices' operation would signal about a possible safety or security breach within the electronic system. This paper explores the program counter (PC) of a processor core as a potential source for ICmetrics features and discusses several methods of feature values acquisition with the aim to achieve a maximum level of information gain with a minimal impact on a system's performance. The main finding of this study is that while isolated PC values may not always allow to generate a stable identifier (profile) for a device that would distinguish the device from the rest in the considered set, the PC sequences and frequencies in the execution flow may serve as suitable ICmetrics features, which has yet to be tested in complex scenarios.
