...Performance analysis of Substitution Cipher Based Cryptographic Algorithm Mihir Sanghavi 11MCA48, Student, MCA Programme, Institute of Technology, Nirma University, Ahmadabad Email: 11MCA48@nirmauni.ac.in Abstract Cryptography is the study of Encryption techniques related to aspects of information security, such as confidentially or privacy, data integrity and entity authentication. Today’s world, for secure data transmission via Internet or any public network, there is no alternative to cryptography. The role of Cryptography is most important in the field of network security. The main goal of cryptography is Confidentiality, Integrity, Authentication, Non repudiation. Cryptography is widely used by governmental and intelligence agencies around the world to safe transmission of any format of messages online or offline. In cryptography, a substitution cipher is a method of encryption by which units of plaintext are replaced with cipher text, according to a regular system; the "units" may be single letters, pairs of letters, triplets of letters, mixtures of the above, and so forth. The receiver deciphers the text by performing an inverse substitution. Caesar cipher is an example of substitution cipher method. In this paper substitution cipher based cryptography algorithms are compared and performance is evaluated. Keywords Cryptography, substitution cipher, cryptanalysis, Caesar cipher, monoalphabetic cipher and Polyalphabetic cipher. Introduction A substitution...

...NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF RWANDA FACULTY OF APPLIED SCIENCES DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE ACADEMIC YEAR 2011 Performance analysis of Encryption/Decryption algorithms using SimpleScalar By: MANIRIHO Malachie and NIZEYIMANA Jean-Paul Supervisor: Dr.-Ing. NIYONKURU Adronis Huye, 2011 CHAPTER ONE: GENERAL INTRODUCTION 1.1. BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY There are various security measures that can be imposed in order to secure the information stored. As more and more technologies evolve, an irresponsible person may try to find a way to excavate any loopholes within the system in order to penetrate into the heart of its weaknesses. This is due to the fact that human-made designs can also be broken by another human. Thus, over time security measures must constantly be reviewed and strengthened in order to combat hackers or culprits hot on the heels of system developers who are also using high technologies. One of the means to secure the data is to apply a secret code of encryption. By having it encrypted, the sender can pass the data to the receiver and only the receiver or authorized personnel can have access to the data provided they have been given a key by the sender to decrypt it in order for them to view the information. Thus, without having the right key, nobody is able to read the encrypted data received or stored. Even if hackers or unauthorized person managed to intercept or steal the data, it would be...

...A NOVEL APPROACH TO IMPLEMENT DISK SECURITY USING PARTIAL DISK ENCRYPTION Anurag Sharma M L Smitha Tarun T Arya Minal Moharir Information Science and Engineering RV College of Engineering The main objective of the paper is to develop an efficient and cost effective method for Hard Disk Drive(HDD) Security. The task is implemented using Partial Disk Encryption (PDE) with Advanced Encryption Standards(AES) for data security of Personal Computers(PCS) and Laptops . The focus of this work is to authenticate and protect the content of HDD from illegal use. The proposed method is labeled as DiskTrust. FDE encrypts entire content or a single volume on your disk. Symmetric key uses same key for encryption as well for decryption. DiskTrust uses these two technology to build cost effective solution for small scale applications. Finally, the applicability of these methodologies for HDD security will be evaluated on a set of data files with different key sizes. KEYWORDS- INFORMATION SECURITY, INTEGRITY, CONFIDENTIALITY, AUTHENTICATION, ENCRYPTION. I. INTRODUCTION In today’s world information security is an important concern for every individual. People spend hundreds of dollars in protecting their data to stay in the competition, and any leakage of crucial data can result in unrecoverable loss. Information security is the most important form of security even before network security, as information stored securely can only be transmitted securely over a network, there by...

...Digital Forensics: Uganda’s Preparedness Dennis Tusiime Rwatooro 2014-M142-2002 Dept of Computer Science Abstract — The more our lives continue to depend on digital communication networks and media to perform daily activities such as communication, access to information and critical services such as health, financial transactions, entertainment, and public utilities like electricity, the more we get exposed to security risks. These security risks include breach of confidentiality of communication and transactions, violation of personal privacy, crime and fraud, disruption of services, and distribution of inappropriate content, among others. The goal of digital security is to research into and develop mechanisms to address these security risks. In this paper we briefly survey some of the emerging issues in digital security. The literature shows that while some domains in digital security have remained unchanged over a long time, for example cryptography, new areas have emerged including steganography. Keywords – digital forensic techniques, volatitle data extraction, digital image forensics, malware investigations, email security, symmetric key cryptography, asymmetric key cryptography, public key cryptography. Introduction Forensic science is defined as the application of the sciences as it pertains to legal matters or problems (Gialamas, 2000). One of the branches/fields of forensic science, namely criminalistics, is the profession and scientific discipline oriented...

...secure web services grows. There are two types of threats to the web services : 1.1 Passive attacks : It is eavesdropping on network traffic between browser and server and gaining access to information on a web site that is supposed to be restricted. 1.2 Active attack : It includes impersonating another user, altering messages in transit between client and server and altering information on a web site. In all distributed environment electronic mail is the most heavily used network based application. It is the only application that is widely used across all architecture and vendor platforms. Users expect to be able to and do, send mail to others who are connected directly or indirectly to the internet. PGP(Pretty Good Privacy) is an open-source freely available software for E-Mail security. It provides authentication through the use of digital signature, confidentiality through the use of symmetric block encryption, compression using the ZIP algorithm, E-Mail compatibility using the radix-64 encoding scheme and segmentation and reassembly to accommodate long e-mails. Chapter 2 Review of literature tells the need and appraisal of e-mail security Software. E-mail is well established as a prime means of communication for business purposes that is quicker and cheaper than more traditional methods. Thus is necessary to make one’s corporate messaging system as secure as...

...الفصل الأول التعريف بتقنيات التشفير وأمنية المعلومات 1-1:المقدمة ( Introduction ): إن أمنية المعلومات ناتجة من الحاجة إلى تناقل المعلومات الخاصة لكل من العبارات العسكرية والدبلوماسيـة. هذه الحاجة هي قديمة بقدم الحضارة نفسها. الأسبان القدماء مثلا, شفروا عباراتهم العسكرية. أما بالنسبة للصين, فانه يكفي فقط كتابة العبارات بلغتهم المعروفة والتي تعبر لغة خاصة, وذلك لان القليل من الناس يستطيعون قراءة الحروف الصينية. كانت قنوات الاتصال في السابق بسيطة جدا وكانت ترتب بأسلوب يعتمد في تامين السري على استخدام مراسلين موثوقين. تعتمد الأمنية لمثل هذا التنظيم على كل من موضع الثقة للمراسل وقابليته في أن يبقى محتفظا بالمواقف أو المواقع التي فيها يمكن أن تتعرض العبارات للانتهاك. بسبب اكتشاف أنظمة الحاسبات واستخدام شبكات الحاسبة الواسعة بين الدول, فان القرن العشرين قد غير بصورة ملحوظة مدى مفاهيم الحماية. في الحاسبات المبكرة ( الأولى), فان الأمنية الفيزيائية ومعها سياسة الاختيار الملائم للكادر العامل في الحاسبة كان كافيا لتامين الأمنية. لكن هذا أصبح غير كاف وغير مرن بعد اكتشاف أنظمة حاسبات المشاركة الزمنية (Time-Sharing) والتي تتألف من عدة محطات طرفية موزعة في مساحة جغرافية واسعة. من الجدير بالذكر أن امن وسلامة اتصال,ت الالكترونية في بدء ظهورها لم يكن هاما لان معظم المعلومات المخزونة فيها لم تكن ذات حساسية كبيرة, بعكس ماهي عليه اليوم, إذ كلما ازدادت وارتفعت قيمة المعلومات المخزونة في الحاسبات الالكترونية كلما ازدادت الرغبة لدى بعض الأفراد لمحاولة الوصول إليها من اجل التخريب أو من اجل الكسب غير المشروع بواسطة بيعها إلى الجهات الراغبة بذلك, لذا فقد أصبح امن هذه المعلومات على درجة...
