Kannel SMS Gateway:
Kannel is a compact and very powerful open source WAP and SMS gateway, used widely across the globe both for serving trillions of short messages (SMS), WAP Push service indications and mobile internet connectivity. I studied about Kannel to implement my project SMS solution. Also studied about sqlbox, which is a special Kannel box that sits between bearerbox and smsbox and uses a database queue to store and forward messages. All this research helped me to implement the SMS gateway for sending websms.
Security attacks on Mobile Device and Databases:
This research was also conducted during the implementation of SMS Solution. We are planning to implement the project in the android platform. As the SMS can contain confidential data thats why to ensure confidentiality we emphasized on mobile and android security. Our upcoming project is an online e-payment system and to notify an user we will use SMS. The SMS will be send via our implemented SMS solution. As the notification can contain a user's money and pin codes, so my responsibility was to study about different cyber attacks on mobile and security devices and ensure protection to our system. I studied about different encryption algorithms and used SHA256 for our project.
Face Recognition and Identification:
As i told our upcoming project is an online payment system. My responsibility is to ensure authentication via face recognition. For the purpose of this project implementation I am studying about the researches conducted by Colorado State University( click here) and University of Illinois Urbana Champaign(click here). I have studied different algorithms like PCA, LDA, EBGM. Now, i am implementing the algorithms.
