Implementation of a Secured Scalable File Server System

Abstract

This research paper proposed and developed a blueprint for a secured scalable file server system for organisations that can handle large volumes of data, accommodate numerous users with varying levels of access and permissions and adhere to all security and compliance standards of organisations. With the implementation of this secured and scalable file server system, users of all levels will be able to access, manipulate, transfer files easily devoid of any data lost, file corruption or fear of getting infested with virus when sharing using flash drives. System administrators will be able to backup files easily to forestall any unforeseen circumstances and finally the organisation’s Management will be able to have full control of all data that is used in the organisation. The proposed system is a scalable file server designed for digital file management. This secured and scalable file server system provided a secure and user-friendly interface allowing organisation's staff to efficiently store, retrieve, and share files. The proposed system at its heart, provide strong data storage capabilities that will easily meet data growing needs.
