SecureEd: Dynamic Education Platform
- Can a developer achieve both security requirements and the ultimate user experience?
- Is it possible to create an educational platform that was built with the user being the center?
- In a digital world, how can we securely develop a platform that feels more like a community?
This project is divided into three parts:
1- Website development (front-end and back-end)
2- Designing and developing the database system
3- Applying security measures to the website
Here is a breakdown of my structure:
Idea [What was required] | The project aimed to develop a comprehensive educational platform with distinct functionalities for administrators, teachers, and students, ensuring secure access, content creation, exam management, and user interaction. |
My Intention | The primary objective was to craft a robust educational platform that facilitates user-specific functionalities, emphasizing security measures to protect data and ensure smooth user experiences. |
Initial Thoughts | Before starting, considerations revolved around envisioning a secure, user-friendly educational space, addressing potential challenges in access control, database development and design, and system security. |
Pre-production Steps | The pre-production phase involved thorough research on educational platform needs, planning system functionalities for different user roles, database relations and identifying security requirements. |
Production Steps | The production phase focused on implementing the platform's functionality, using front-end and back-end technologies, and ensuring robust security measures to the code. |
Security Measures Applied | Some of the security measures applied in the website: Brute Force protection, data encryption, XSS protection, access management, strong password policy |
Post-production Steps | After the primary development, the focus shifted to testing against user and system requirements, evaluating system effectiveness, and generating comprehensive technical and user documentation. |
Visualization | The visualization showcased a functional website with secure login features, interactive content creation interfaces for teachers, exam management tools, and user-friendly interfaces for students. |
