How should I manage user policy risks with tiCrypt?
It is difficult to "police" users about compliance in an institutional environment. Generally, there are fewer to no options to enforce policies before a cyber attack occurs.
The alternative is to add anything that seems like secure data into tiCrypt.
- Non-secured projects are added into tiCrypt just in case they would contain any sensitive line that would make them classified.
- tiCrypt has a mechanism designed to enforce compliance.
- Researchers prefer stocking data into tiCrypt over other non-secured data storage.
- tiCrypt Vault and VMs act as a single solution to multiple problems.
1. Add data into the Vault
To add non-secured data into tiCrypt, navigate to the tab then select the My Files
section on the top left panel.
- Click the
Upload
button in the top right panel. - Select either the
Files
orDirectories
option. - Follow the instructions from upload a file section.
- Optionally, follow the instructions from the drag-and-drop uploading section.
2. Move data from the Vault to the VM
info
- To start working with the data from your Vault, you must move it into a virtual machine.
- A user can transfer files from their Vault into the VM. Transferring makes a copy, meaning that the original will remain in the Vault.
To transfer non-secured data from Vault to VM, navigate to the tab, in the Virtual Machines
section.
- Select the connected VM you want to transfer to/from.
- Click the
Transfer files to/from Vault
button in the center-right. - Follow the instructions from transfer from the Vault to VM section.
