%X An alarmingly high mortality and morbidity rate has been observed in COVID-19.
As a new disease (similar group of SARS-CoV 2), it has been spread to more than
two hundred countries and millions of people. However, COVID-19 infection is
increasing in Bangladesh also. Therefore, an effective public health response
is needed to control the outbreak of the mentioned new disease. If this high
increasing factor turns out of control then it provides potential negative
impact on social, economic, and political life of Bangladeshi people. One of
the most effective ways to reduce or prevent the growth of COVID</span></span><span><span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">-</span></span></span><span><span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">19 is
to wear masks. Many variants of COVID-19 are available in the world currently.
Latest, there is a variant of omicron. This variant is too infectious. It means
the vaccine seems to be not perfect against this deadliest disease COVID-19.
However, people are not conscious enough about this matter generally. Nowadays,
they are very reluctant to wear a mask. Their main thought is to get vaccinated
and it can protect themselves. Definitely, the vaccine can protect at a certain
level. However, Omicron proves that vaccine is not the ultimate solution. But,
we can protect ourselves to wear a mask and keeping physical distance. This is
the borderline of our research work. In this work, we proposed a system that
will monitor the people who are outside the home/office via a close circuit
camera. It evaluates whether the people are mask-free or not. If one does not
wear a mask then an image will be captured and compared with database of
national-data center for example NID server. As sensitive data, it needs
security and protection. Hence, we adopt a cryptographic solution such as
authenticated encryption or tag generation. As a result, receiver will be
assured that a valid sender provides data to the valid receiver. The goal of
this system proposal is to ensure wear face masks. As well, people will be
punished based on the findings of mask-wearing. Furthermore, message
authentication or tag generation secures sensitive information or data, because
of accessing NID server. Specially, this model will be suitable for Bangladesh
and other overcrowded countr</span></span></span><span><span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">ies</span></span></span><span><span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">.
Because manmade or policing for all-time monitoring system is quite impossible
for the populated country. Hence, we should start an automated system
