  • WHAT WE DO

    Problems addressed: Currently, there is no robust intelligence-grade kernel security protection available for Android/Linux based devices including IOT which can prevent sensitive data leaks. Most of the solutions offered today are Application level and file folder level policy frameworks are attack-prone and can be easily compromised by an expert attacker.
     

    Diamond-Droid safeguards confidential data and prevents leakage of sensitive corporate and personal data on Android devices.

     

    Solutions offered: Our path-breaking kernel-based security framework offers one of the highest possible levels of security for any android/ Linux device. Our kernel resident security software framework "Diamond-Droid", can safely and securely intercept, deceive and defeat any "prohibited" events at the system level. Any number of such "Prohibited event filters" can be programmed and added as a loadable kernel module (LKM) with trust verification. Depending on customer requirements, we can build custom "control mechanisms" or "filters" to suit to client needs.

     

    Uniqueness: Using our hardened kernel technology that can intercept any system level call, we can nearly match or exceed the robust security standards of Apple's IPhone. We can offer the same technology to any IOT device, medical device or mobile phone that runs on the Linux Kernel.
     

    Our current focus is on applying this technology to Smart Phones, Tablets & medical devices that utilize Linux Kernel.

  • Introducing Diamond Droid

    Diamond Droid is a kernel based security framework on the bleeding edge of cybersecurity technology. Built around a modified/hardened linux kernel; it safely intercepts, deceives, and defeats any security threat at the system level.

     

    Diamond Droid can prevent any type of data leak or intrusion in android / linux based devices such as mobile phones, smart watches, Medical Devices such as Patient Monitoring workstations, Glucose meters, Heart & Lung Monitors, personal medical devices which require specialized protection, and a plethora of IOT devices.

     

    Diamond Droid adaptable, affordable and scalable for any android device.

    Many Android applications, even the security focused ones, have been shown to be susceptible to application level privilege escalation attacks: For instance, an application without permission to access the Internet can use unprotected interfaces in other applications to download files, access voice calls, install malicious malware or SMS services.

     

    Whether it be unauthorized data transfers, irritating pop-up ads, malware or other types of intrusion, Diamond Droid provides customizable filters, giving each user a product unique to their needs. For example: A video game company would want to prevent anyone from using a mobile camera or voice recorder to capture projects under development. Using geo-fencing, Diamond Droid alerts the administrator and deactivates/ jams the camera, voice recorder and other devices selected by the administrator. As soon as the specified device leaves the premises, the camera and voice recorder will be reactivated.

     

    Such specific control over security is imperative in Governmental and Corporate sectors, yet is also beneficial for personal use. By security, we mean, protecting the system from manipulation by impostor, from the OS level. The OS is fault tolerant with better fault isolation mechanisms, providing a seamless and undetectable security filtration. For ex: When a user makes a system call, it is forwarded transparently through the filter which in-turn will call the actual system call. The users and applications are not aware of the presence of the filter model, as there is no change to the user interface. This is just one amongst several checks and balances incorporated in Diamond Droid to keep continuous watch on the kernel files, insuring they remain unreachable to would-be hackers.

     

    Diamond Droid can utilize multiple filter classes without introducing unknown bugs into the kernel code because of its separation in code base. Diamond Droid is unlike application-layer-based security software, resides inside the Android/Linux Kernel, beyond the reach of outside users. Using this model, Diamond Droid is able to provide both passive and active biometric data.

  • Diamond Droid is not an Application-Layer-Based program.

    It resides inside the Android/Linux Kernel which is; Beyond the Reach of a User!

    Diamond Droid is securely installed in the modified android kernel of every mobile phone. The technology is written in C++ language. Diamond Droid filters provide the power and flexibility to be customized for the unique needs of the user.

     

    The Core Droid Kernel Filter mechanism is fused deep inside the modified Android/ Linux kernel and is hard to reach by any hacker. Several checks and balances are incorporated in the patented software which keeps a continuous watch on the kernel files.

    - Our kernel resident security software framework"Diamond-Secure", can safely and securely intercept, deceive and defeat any "prohibited" event at the system level.

     

    - Any number of such "Prohibited event filters" can be programmed and added as a loadable kernel module (LKM) with trust verification."

     

    - Depending on customer requirements, we can build custom "control mechanisms" or "filters" to suit the individual client needs

    Types of Droid Kernel Filter functions that can protect or prevent include:

     

    - denying access to a specific high security or sensitive file, or even a specific piece of data record within the file

     

    - alerting the user if data attempts to leave the device through the network interface.

     

    - altering the return value by returning fake/empty data or some junk data fooling the hacker

     

    - triggering a warning email or pop up when there is a bio-metric verification query

     

    - sending "watch out" messages to administrators remotely or perform additional control functions on the cloud.

     

    Diamond Droid runs on the latest Android operating system & can run any App from the Google Play store.

    - Any mobile phone running Android

     

    - Android smart watches

     

    - Android/Linux based Medical Devices including Patient Monitoring workstations, Glucose meters, Heart & Lung monitors, personal medical devices that need security and any other Android technology based equipment.

     

    - Android/Linux based payment processing terminals

     

    - All Linux based devices that need security

     

    - IOT devices

  • Diamond Droid Programmable Filters

    The Android Kernel has the highest system privilege and every aspect of the phone is accessible by the kernel. Therefore, every part of the phone can be programmed by building a specialized a filter and it is left to our imagination and requirement.

    Types of Droid Kernel Filter functions that can protect or prevent include:

    i) Provide a list of all apps and what data each app is sending or receiving, what URL they are accessing remotely, what kind of data they are sending and what kind of data they have permission to access etc.
     
    ii) User can select a set of target files or file folder or specific records in a file, (example: address book or text messages) and let the filter to monitor whether any data is accessed by any app. If any app accesses the targeted data files or data elements or data folders, intercept the app and give the user a warning or block the data or send some dummy data.

    iii) Secure voice call/ secure messaging using kernel and/or in combination with a secure app
     
    iv) Whitelisting or blacklist of applications

    v) kernel based application usage analysis and set usage limits. we can block certain applications beyond certain usage limits to prevent phone addiction.

     

     

     

    Special Filters

     

    vi) block or warn usage of cameras, microphones and other devices by apps when the phone is idle or when the app not in use. Or when some other app is running. Basically, we will identify an anomaly or unusual behavior of a particular app.
     

    vii) Ad-blocker filter


    viii) kill switch filter


    ix) malware prediction filter


    x) realtime cyber threat detection filter


    xi) kernel threat/ kernel attack filter


    xii) browser threats/ cookie analysis and check on ad cookies.
