Task Proposal: Privacy and data security

[Ivan Čukić]

User Story

=======

Alice works for Letni Micro Devices, and she is afraid of corporate
espionage. The documents she is dealing with need to be available only
to her and away from any prying eyes. She needs to have an option to
encrypt the sensitive data in activities related to her job.

Her husband Bob is a shrink and he has to keep the patient data
confidential. He creates an activity per patient, and only unlocks the
data related to the patient he currently is seeing.

Their kid Malkolm sometimes uses the device and is able to access only
public activities.

Malice, an evil psycho corporate spy can't access Alices data by
stealing the device from Bob.


Why this is important

=============

Privacy is important in corporate environment for obvious reasons. It
is also important at home where you might need to hide certain
activities like gift shopping from other house mates.


Proposed implementation

================

Encrypt activity data usinf fuse/encfs. Limit the meta-data that is
stored in nepomuk or encrypt it.
