The project aims to develop an application that monitors system activity to detect ransomware threats and protects critical files. It helps prevent data loss, alerts users to suspicious behavior, and implements protective measures to ensure file security and system integrity in real-time.
Research ransomware behavior, common attack vectors, and file encryption techniques used by malware.
Design and implement a monitoring system to track file system changes and suspicious activities.
Develop algorithms to detect ransomware-like behavior, such as rapid file encryption or mass file modification.
Implement real-time alerts to notify users of potential ransomware threats.
Create file protection mechanisms, such as automatic backup or access restriction for sensitive files.
Integrate logging to maintain records of monitored activities and detected threats for auditing purposes.
Test the application for accuracy, detection speed, and system performance under simulated ransomware attacks.
Develop a user-friendly interface to manage settings, view alerts, and restore protected files.
Deploy the application in a controlled environment for demonstration and evaluation of its effectiveness.
