ABSTRACT
Safety is the basic and important criteria of any technical advancement. Digilocker is a service launched by Government of India in February 2015 to provide a secure dedicated personal electronic space for storing the documents of resident Indian citizens. Our paper proposes an idea of providing high security for the documents that are placed on the digilocker and it’s highly based on the user’s risk. Encryption is the key point to be proposed here. The documents are that uploaded on this digilocker must be encrypted by the user itself. Another proposal is the inbuilt compression technique that is to be added to the digilocker software itself.
Keywords: compression, encryption
